Retain 'styles' in auto1111

[Alintya]

Is it intended that styles seem to get purged on updates?

[AbdBarho]

No, this is just a consequence of how symlinks works and how the webui writes to the file. #180

Ideas welcome.

You cannot do stuff like this with bind-mounted files.

We probably need hacky-tricky way with bind mounting local file ./data/config/auto/styles.csv to another location like /localstuff/styles.csv and...

1. With startup.sh copy /localstuff/styles.csv to /stable-diffusion-webui/styles.csv if it does not exists (clean container).
2. With another simple script running in background use inotifywait to monitor /stable-diffusion-webui/styles.csv file for changes and copy changes to /localstuff/styles.csv so bind mounted file will remain up to date with current styles.csv inside container.

Looks like a solution now exists upstream.

Also, --styles-file arg does exists.

For anyone interested, the style.csv is now easily accessible in \data\config\auto (and therefore easier to save and replace in case of issue)
