Send auth credentials to the Docker socket if Docker config file is mounted

Current Status

Currently, if a Docker config file were to be mounted to the peer containers to either /root/.dockercfg or /root/.docker/config.json with credentials for a private repository, fabric-peer won't send the configured credentials to the socket. This becomes an issue when the peer tries to pull the chaincode build environments (fabric-baseos, etc.) from a private repository.

Expected

If a Docker config file has been mounted to the peer, the peer should check if auth credentials are provided in the config file and send them to the socket.
