    Update quickstart doc to use drop-in unit files · b9205399
    Maru Newby authored
    While it's possible to edit distro/package unit files installed to
    /lib/systemd/system, a cleaner solution exists.  systemd will pick up
    'drop-in' unit files located in '/etc/systemd/system/[unit name].d/'.
    A drop-in unit file only has to include fields that override those in
    the main unit file, and the drop-in unit and main unit file can change
    independently.
    
    This change updates the quickstart doc to use drop-in unit files to
    configure docker.service instead of editing the main unit file.
