Added a daemon.json file to set "overlay2" as the storage driver and moved Docker’s data directory to /opt/docker-data. This change makes sure Docker starts properly on EMT OS. Also updated the spec file to install this config and copy any existing Docker data to the new location. Signed-off-by: Polmoorx Shiva Kumar <[email protected]>

Description
On EMT OS, when we tried to start Docker, it failed because the default overlay2 storage driver requires a writable, overlay-compatible filesystem, but /var/lib/docker resides under /var, which on EMT OS can be mounted as read-only or which isn’t compatible with overlay operations. This prevented Docker from launching. To fix this, we configured Docker to store its data in /opt/docker-data, a persistent and writable location that supports overlay2, by adding a daemon.json file and updating the RPM spec to create the required directories, install the configuration, and safely migrate any existing data from /var/lib/docker using rsync. With this change, Docker now starts and runs reliably on both RT and non-RT EMT OS, using a stable and compatible storage location.
