Description

Issue:
- The dotnet container step performs a local build of the image that is to be used by the aspire CLI - in this case aspire deploy. However the fact that this local step happens is not reflected on our documentation.
- This can lead to people having Docker Containers on Windows locally, and therefore any Linux image is likely to fail to build locally.

ASK:
- Clarify in our CLI documentation that the local containers must be exactly the same OS as the image that is defined in the AppHost.

Research direction

Start in the CLI documentation and find the section describing the dotnet container step used by the Aspire CLI, including aspire deploy. Explain that the image is built locally and that local containers must use the same OS as the image defined in the AppHost; done means this constraint is clear to Windows users.
