📄 Description

Hi @VFrontDe ,

Many thanks for your great work, this project helped me a lot!

Since I am not a windows user and not familiar with powershell, I hope the script can be executed on my linux machine without any knowledge of pwsh and nuget.

Things turned out to be really easy, vmware provides containerized vmware/powerclicore and I can just mount the script and run docker run -it -v $(pwd):/scripts --rm vmware/powerclicore /scripts/ESXi-Customizer-PS.ps1.

This way is much easier to get the script work for me, and in this pull request, I have added this method with a dockerfile which directly add the script from your github master branch (you may pin it to some release/commit in future), along with some related docs.

Maybe this is a bad idea to add a single file to a container image since it could be mounted from local filesystem, but at least this could ease life for someone :^)

Bad news: VMware.ImageBuilder is currently not working on powershell core, some work around may required, I am working on it.
