[pdal] Docker PDAL 1.3 images

[Howard Butler]

For your convenience, a full-featured PDAL is also available via Docker which includes nearly all drivers. This is the easiest way to get going with PDAL. Additionally, whenever a push is made by the development team to the PDAL 1.3-maintenance branch, the Docker image will be automatically updated.

> $ docker run pdal/pdal:1.3 pdal --drivers
