Conversation
Add docs/source/nilrt_containers/nilrt_containers.rst, a tutorial for building and running NILRT as an OCI/Docker container image, and link it into the Tutorials toctree in index.rst. The guide covers an overview of the runmode and slim container variants and their intended use, the loss of real-time determinism when running on the host kernel, why driver installation is not sensible in a container, prerequisites for building and running, building the images and loading the artifacts, creating the macvlan network and launching containers with the docker/ helper scripts, installing LabVIEW RT and the VeriStand engine via opkg, configurable run options (network, storage, memory, CPU, etc.), and supported host operating systems.
