Description

With the docker docker cli, it's easy to enable what's inside docker to access the host with 'the '--net "host"' flag.

How do you do that with docker-py?

Research direction

Compare docker-py's network configuration entry points with the Docker CLI's --net "host" option, starting from the library's public client API and its Docker Engine API mapping. Done means providing a verified docker-py usage example or documenting that the equivalent is unavailable; the issue names no files or tests to run.
