By default the CLI starts a fake API server which intercepts calls to a real API which allows the CLI to print output to stdout or a file.
Unfortunately on Linux, Docker won't allow a container to communicate with a server running on the host on 127.0.0.1, so we had to set it to 0.0.0.0.
Even more unfortunate, is on WSL which is a Linux variant, 0.0.0.0 doesn't work at all so we have to set it back to 127.0.0.1.
Using the info in microsoft/WSL#423 (comment) to detect WSL.
