Investigate integration with Docker Engine / Desktop

[elpdt852]

As of Docker Desktop 4.12.0, the Docker Engine has been slowly replacing its internals with containerd, and now there is experimental support to use containerd snapshotters for image storage. It may be possible to hook up Docker Engine / Desktop with nix-snapshotter so we can docker run --rm ghcr.io/pdtpartners/hello.

Thanks for making this project. From my casual conversation over slack with docker team , docker desktop won't allow installing ad-hoc snapshotters on the DD VM IIRC.
In search for using a single VM for building and running containers, I've made a simple lima VM setup here that acts as a remote docker daemon and a Nix builder. I'm figuring out how to install nix-snapshotter on this now
