network/proxy: add a note pointing at docker engine and Docker Desktop (#15046) 

* network/proxy: add a note pointing at docker engine and Docker Desktop

However the scope of the instructions is limited to containers:

> If your container needs to use an HTTP, ...

- for pulling and pushing containers
- for docker scan

Add a note at the top of this page to clarify the scope and link to
instructions for other cases.
