Decide on docker version strategy #373

@jodh-intel

Description

@jodh-intel

Docker removed devicemapper in 18.09 which complicates life for many (see kata-containers/runtime#1112).

Our install docs setup the docker repo and then help users install the latest version of docker. Given the above, that's a potential problem so we need to find a non-gross way of updating the install docs to install docker 18.06.

The approach needs to:

Since the docker package will get auto-upgraded from 18.06 -> 18.09 when the user upgrades their installed packages, we're basically going to have to apt-mark hold docker I think:

We'll also have to find the appropriate distro rune for each other install doc and then remove it if/when docker can be upgraded once again. And add a "note" explaining what the extra step is for.
