Description
Should the install script use update-alternatives to link back to the newer docker-compose-plugin?
update-alternatives --install /usr/local/bin/docker-compose docker-compose /usr/libexec/docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose 1
This would create a symlink from /usr/libexec/docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose to /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Evaluate the proposed update-alternatives command across supported environments; done means the script reliably provides the expected docker-compose command without breaking existing installations.
