devcontainers can be used by IDEs like VSCode to build the whole development environment in a container. This allows you to keep dependencies, build, and all development aspects separated from any development. It also allows contributors to instantly have a working, standardized development environment. It also allows cloud development tools like GitHub Codespaces be automatically setup with the desired environment.

See https://containers.dev/ for more details

If the devcontainer is running on a headless system, there is no DISPLAY to pass into the container.
This change adds a virtual display/framebuffer for X11 to use to associate with the clipboard
