Description
At this time, the implementation of reading and using credentials from ~/.docker/config.json is part of the Testcontainers implementation. Are there plans to move the logic to Docker Java so it can be reused by other consumers? I'd have the need for it in a Gradle plugin that uses the Docker Java library.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing Testcontainers implementation that reads and uses credentials from ~/.docker/config.json, then review how Docker Java could expose that logic for reuse. Done would mean a decided, reusable location and scope for the credential registry parsing needed by the Gradle plugin consumer.
