Building devcontainer using gh actions hosted runners fail on docker newer than v23

[hellt]

The issue is raised against moby project - moby/moby#48987

It looks like something is off between gh action runners and the dpkg installer that causes the installation to fail, while it is not failing in the msft build pipelines on their runners.

Because of this dependency, the devcontainer we build is locked to moby v23.

As an alternative, I tried using the docker-ce package instead of moby, but then there was another skeleton awaiting -- devcontainers/features#1202. The docker-ce installation installs the correctly requested version, but then an update to the docker-compose package causes docker-ce and docker-ce-cli to be bumped to the latest available version.

You would ask, "hey, mate, why don't you then rock the latest docker-ce?" Fair question, the problem is then with the ip6_tables kernel module that docker-ce v27 sets up by default not being available in gh codespaces, which causes containerlab deploy to fail miserably. Another issue that I had to file - moby/moby#47895 (comment)
At least that issue got answered, which resulted in this devcontainers/features#1206
