Micromamba-based VS Code devcontainer

I made this devcontainer image based on Micromamba-Docker. It makes it easy and efficient to bootstrap a Conda environment without having a predetermined Python version. It also sets up Docker-from-Docker, and includes many small helpful features like being preconfigured in case one installs pre-commit or uses a .git-blame-ignore-revs file.

It required a lot of tinkering to get Git and Docker-from-Docker running to my satisfaction, and I've found it invaluable for managing the development environments for myself and my collaborators. It's a work-in-progress, but I think it's now mature enough to share, and I'm very interested to hear any feedback, critical or otherwise. I hope some people find it useful!

Looking good!

On line 21 you copy the docker-compose binary from the docker-compose image. Then on line 127 you overwrite the previously copied file. Is that just some old cruft you haven't cleaned up or is there some logic behind that process?

Oops, good catch! Thanks for spotting that.

(And even if there were some logic, I would have been missing an explanatory comment.)

Still very "work-in-progress" so it's great to get some fresh eyes. Thank you!
