docs: clarify Docker installation requirements and add platform-specific instructions
- Replace "Docker Desktop" prerequisite with generic "Docker installed" - Add detailed Docker installation instructions for macOS, Linux, and Windows - Include package manager options (Homebrew, apt-get, winget, Chocolatey) - Add Docker verification command - Update related documentation files for consistency - Use collapsible section to keep Quick Start clean Now users understand they can use any Docker installation method, not just Docker Desktop. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
