Docker image

It would be really cool if we had a Docker image for Piccolo Admin.

It would have environment variables such as: PG_HOST, PG_PASSWORD etc to tell it how to connect to Postgres.

To determine which tables to connect to, it would either use a config file mounted in a volume, or would accept another environment variable called PICCOLO_TABLES. For example PICCOLO_TABLES=article,post.

Since Piccolo now has powerful schema reflection abilities, we can generate the Piccolo Table classes automatically.

It would open up Piccolo admin to a much wider user base (including non-Python users).

@dantownsend This is a great idea because Piccolo Admin can be the admin UI for any existing Postgres database (of course the database must have columns that are supported by Piccolo ORM). I don't know anything about Docker so there won't be any help from me, but I like the idea.

@sinisaos Yeah, I'm excited about the possibilities.
