Description

Core

Proposal

Can't use ssh connect for remote docker deamon in testcontainers.properties - only support schemas - unix, npipe and tcp
Now I get message "Unsupported protocol scheme: ssh://user@10.10.10.10"

Research direction

Start in the Core handling of docker_host configuration and reproduce the unsupported-protocol error using testcontainers.properties with an ssh:// value. Trace how the existing unix, npipe, and tcp schemes are handled; done means a remote Docker daemon using SSH is accepted without the reported error.
