Wordpress seems to have addressed this under this issue.

I notice you are using a custom wp-config.php. Most likely, you can use the WORDPRESS_CONFIG_EXTRA for this rather than mounting wp-config.php.

Theoretically (per the link above), updating the image should update the database, but I have not confirmed.

Based on this, my stack.yml/docker-compose.yml looks like this:

    environment:
      WORDPRESS_CONFIG_EXTRA: |
        define( 'AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED', true );
    volumes:
      - "./themes:/var/www/html/wp-content/themes/"
      - "./plugins:/var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/"
      - "./uploads:/var/www/html/wp-content/uploads/"
