Description

What is the new container you'd like to have?

I would like to implement a Lowkey Vault container (an Azure Key Vault emulator which already has .Net and Java Testcontainers modules).

Docker container: https://hub.docker.com/r/nagyesta/lowkey-vault
Docker configuration: https://github.com/nagyesta/lowkey-vault/tree/main/lowkey-vault-docker
Lowkey Vault can be very useful for projects which need direct integration with Azure Key Vault as it can enable local development and testing.

Why not just use a generic container for this?

Although the generic container can start the container, the configuration is far form trivial due to the fact that the container uses 2 ports and has some pitfalls we can help avoid with a custom container.

I can provide a PR for this if you are okay with that...

Start by reviewing the Lowkey Vault Docker configuration linked in the issue and comparing its two-port setup with the repository's existing container patterns. Confirm the configuration pitfalls and define the custom container's expected behavior, then verify that it supports local development and testing against Azure Key Vault.
