Add option to get the info on running containers
Hello,
Could an option be added to obtain information on containers? A bit like docker inspect? In fact, it's something that could be “simple” to add, but it's necessary to have the real name of running containers.
This would simplify the development of third-party tools or make it easier to integrate devcontainers with other IDEs.
Dev containers internally uses Docker, hence, you can still use the docker inspect command to find information on the containers.

Curious, won't the docker ps command help you with it?

It is, but If I have multiple containers running on my system (which is the case for most pleople), I have to "manually" search for the one I want. As the cli can execute command in the devcontainer, I suppose it van return the name of the container.
