Confined Docker snap available

[Peng Liu]

Hi Loïc,

I also realized that might be a problem in an old version. So I upgraded
the snapd to the latest version.

$ snap --version
snap 2.16ubuntu3
snapd 2.16ubuntu3
series 16
ubuntu 16.04

And I tried to install the docker from both stable and edge channel.
In both cases, the plug and slot can not connect problems have gone. But I
am still not able to figure out how to run a simple hello world docker.

$ docker run ubuntu /bin/echo 'Hello world'
docker: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon. Is the docker daemon running
on this host?.
See 'docker run --help'.

Thanks.

Peng
