Docker support

Docker support for Pharo

Launchpad provides a Docker image that can be used as base for containerized applications. It's built on top of pharo:v13.1.2, adding some useful scripts for Launchpad-based applications:

• launchpad starts the CLI
• launchpad-explain starts the CLI with the explain command
• launchpad-list starts the CLI with the list command
• launchpad-start starts the CLI with the start command and set up a SIGTERM handler for gracefully stopping the application.
• launchpad-healthcheck is run as the default docker HEALTHCHECK
