[JENKINS-69852] Use docker-java instead of docker cli

Description

Original: If a pipeline defines a {{agent \{ docker { ... } }}} section, the plugin will rely that docker cli is installed on the node to perform the appropriate operations ({{{}docker inspect{}}}, {{{}docker run{}}}, ...) When using Jenkins in a container, this means we need to install [docker-in-docker|https://hackmamba.io/blog/2022/04/running-docker-in-a-jenkins-container/], which brings extra complexity. If {{docker-build-step-plugin}} already brings a dependency to docker-java (if I understand JENKINS-22985 right), maybe the same could be done for this plugin too ?
