setup steps can become unwieldy when manually managing containers #81

Description

@phlogistonjohn

sambacc provides a "setup steps" feature for some commands (mainly run) in which you can pass to have sambacc perform and explict set of setup steps before launching the main command (starting a long running process like smbd,winbind).

An example from a recent task did: run --setup=config --setup=users --setup=users_passdb --setup=nsswitch smbd
While it's nice that the setups steps are granular enough to provide a fine level of control over how sambacc sets up the environment its a bit to remember and type.
This was not a problem when samba-container images are mostly getting run via a higher level of orchestration like the samba-operator. However, when working in a low-orchestration environment this can be annoying

This is is a "I'm not commited to this, but let's think about it" to consider some sort of higher level way to invoke the setup steps - probably through the config file.
