Docker container

Nextflow, the job execution engine that Companion is based on, can run its processes using a Docker container, if desired. This is currently being provided as part of the uofgiii DockerHub organization. The software configuration available in the container is specified in the corresponding Dockerfile. It is kept updated by a GitHub Action (see https://github.com/sii-companion/companion/wiki/Contributing-to-Companion) that triggers a new container build every time a new release is published on the Companion repository on GitHub:

• vX.X.X tag -> will build the uofgiii/companion:latest and uofgiii/companion:vX.X.X containers.
