Description

We should add infrastructure to our tests which enables us to test the behavior of the Docker executor and containerizer in the presence of a hung Docker daemon.

One possible first-order solution is to build a simple binary which never returns. We could initialize the agent/executor with this binary instead of the Docker CLI in order to simulate a Docker daemon which hangs on every call.
