Docker for Windows support #291

Description

@Villane

Would be nice to get support for Docker for Windows.

I switched to Docker for Windows recently, and now I can't run our testcontainers tests locally, because it seems one can't use VirtualBox and Hyper-V at the same time for Docker on Windows 10.

    I think the underlying docker-java library provided basic support for Windows by specifying DOCKER_HOST=tcp://127.0.0.1:2376, not a smooth experience, but it worked.

    Maybe this setup is simply not considered a valid environment when determining the strategy, although it might work in theory?

    @kiview did you try tcp? How is it so far?

    It works fine with the docker-java client, but testcontainers doesn't recognize the environment based of this parameters it seems.

    @kiview ok, cool. @Villane is sitting next to me, I'll try to fix TestContainers on his machine then :) Or did you plan to contribute Docker for Windows support? I got lost a bit :)

    @bsideup yes, I was indeed planning to help with Docker for Windows support, but that's not high on my priority list right now, since we are using Linux after all. I just think this shouldn't be too hard, since there are already valid workarounds regarding docker-java and docker-groovy of how to achieve this.

    Generally seems to work with this PR #297

    Getting some connection errors in our tests, but this might be on our side.
