//! The remote-Docker [`ComputeBackend`].
//!
//! Delegated: boatramp targets an **existing** Docker daemon via the Engine API
//! ([`bollard`]) — it does not install or manage Docker. `materialize` pulls the
//! image, `launch` creates + starts a container (entrypoint, env, cpu/mem limits,
//! restart policy) and discovers its IP\:port, `stop` stops + removes it, and
//! `health` inspects its running state. The daemon endpoint + TLS/SSH creds come
//! from the environment (`DOCKER_HOST`, `DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY`, `DOCKER_CERT_PATH`),
//! never from the spec — per the secrets rule.
//!
//! Cross-platform (it's an API client). The actual daemon round-trip is the
//! live/integration seam (a self-skipping test against a local dockerd, like the
//! S3/MinIO pattern); the orchestration here is what's compiled + linted.
