Title: Fix: Install Python Docker Module in a Virtual Environment

Description:
This PR addresses the issue of failing to install the Python docker module in an externally managed environment. The issue occurred because direct installation with pip was restricted. To resolve this, a virtual environment is created, and the module is installed within it.

Changes Made:

  1. Added a task to create a Python virtual environment (/opt/dockerenv).
  2. Modified the install docker module for Python task to use the created virtual environment.
  3. Ensured all other related tasks remain functional without additional changes.

Fixes #17

Before Fix (Error Log):

The error highlighted the externally-managed-environment restriction, preventing direct pip installations.

After Fix:

  • Successfully installs the Python docker module using a virtual environment.
  • Playbook execution completes without errors.

Testing:

  • Verified on Ubuntu with Python 3.12.
  • Confirmed the hello-world Docker container is created and run successfully as part of the playbook execution.
