However, when running containers in rootless mode on both Docker and Podman with cgroup v1, resource limits are not supported. This causes tests to fail with error messages like: `Resource limits are not supported and ignored on cgroups V1 rootless systems`.

I've added this functionality to `DockerTestUtils`, which is already used by all container tests. As a result, all container tests now need to include the `java.base/jdk.internal.platform` module, even if they don't directly test resource limits.
