Remove all dangling anonymous volumes

This removes all dangling anonymous volumes. They can take up a lot of space over a long period of time, and should be cleaned out periodically.

Since anonymous valumes are unnamed, they have a 64 character hex string, so we can use grep to filter only for 64-character long volume names.

docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -qf dangling=true | grep -x '.\{64\}')
