[BUG]: On OSX, tests relying on Docker not working with newer Docker Desktop

[matthewmcneely]

What version of Dgraph are you using?

v24.0.5 (on main branch)

Tell us a little more about your go-environment?

go version go1.22.10 darwin/arm64

Have you tried reproducing the issue with the latest release?

None

What is the hardware spec (RAM, CPU, OS)?

64GB Mac M4, OSX 15.1

What steps will reproduce the bug?

cd t
make test args="--pkg=/graphql/resolve" (base)

Expected behavior and actual result.

Expected to tests to be able to connect to the running Docker Desktop instance, but instead it fails with

While listing container: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

Additional information

The newer versions of Docker Desktop for Mac typically create the socket at ~/.docker/run/docker.sock

I'm working on a fix.
