Description
With the Docker Desktop license change, many are looking to alternatives like Podman.
It should be fairly easy to support changing out the name of the `docker` executable, and providing a `DOCKER` envVar.
With the `KIND_EXPERIMENTAL_PROVIDER` option, it should be even possible to use these with KinD.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the `docker` executable usage and the handling of `KIND_EXPERIMENTAL_PROVIDER`; confirm how a `DOCKER` environment override should work with Podman and KinD. Done means the executable can be changed without breaking existing Docker usage and the documented alternative-provider path works.
