Bug: Starting multiple containers at once in parallel causes Conflict by starting ryuk container multiple times due to race condition

Describe the bug

Starting two testcontainers at once triggers both of them to call Reaper._create_instance close in time. Both Reaper instances attempt to create the same ryuk container (since SESSION_ID is the same).

This is relevant when using pytest-parallel, which my organization does. I can probably work around the problem by serializing testcontainer start() calls on one thread.

To Reproduce

from testcontainers.postgres import PostgresContainer
import concurrent.futures


def start_postgres_container(port: int):
    with PostgresContainer(port=port) as postgres:
        print("Postgres is running on port", postgres.get_exposed_port(port))


with concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor() as executor:
    future1 = executor.submit(start_postgres_container, port=5400)

    # Uncommenting this reliably avoids the error
    # import time
    # time.sleep(5)
    future2 = executor.submit(start_postgres_container, port=5401)
    future1.result()
    future2.result()

Beginne mit Reaper._create_instance und führe die concurrent.futures-Reproduktion aus dem Issue mit zwei PostgresContainer-Instanzen aus. Als erledigt gilt, dass parallele Starts nicht mehr zu einem Conflict führen, weil versucht wird, den ryuk-Container mehrfach zu erstellen, und dass beide Container erfolgreich starten.
