feat(docker): allow LXC as parent for docker_container

Previously docker_container could only attach to a docker_host via
virtual edge. Extend the rule so an LXC node can also act as parent,
enabling docker_container nesting under LXC without requiring an
intermediate docker_host.

Extracts the virtual-edge parent rule into a pure helper
(resolveVirtualEdgeParent) with unit tests covering all type pairs.
