Manuel de la Peña b951e92f57 feat(guides): migrate all testcontainers.com guides (#24505)
## Description

Migrate 17 Testcontainers guides from testcontainers.com into the Docker
docs site, covering Java (14 guides), .NET (2 guides), and Node.js (1
guide). This follows up on PR #24450 which added the initial Go and
Python guides.

Each guide is converted from AsciiDoc to Hugo Markdown, split into
multi-chapter stepper navigation, updated to the latest Testcontainers
API, and verified with passing tests running in containers.

Java guides use testcontainers-java 2.0.4 with the new 2.x Maven
coordinates and package names (e.g., `testcontainers-postgresql`,
`org.testcontainers.postgresql.PostgreSQLContainer`). The Quarkus guide
uses Quarkus 3.22.3 with TC 1.x managed by the Quarkus BOM, since no
released Quarkus version ships TC 2.x yet.

## How to test

All code snippets have been verified by running each guide's source
repository tests inside Docker containers with the Docker socket
mounted.

To re-run the verification, use the `/testcontainers-guides-migrator`
skill included in this PR
(`.claude/skills/testcontainers-guides-migrator/SKILL.md`). The skill's
Step 6 documents the exact container commands and macOS Docker Desktop
workarounds (host override, docker-java API version, etc.) needed to run
each language's tests:

```
/testcontainers-guides-migrator I want you to verify all the guides in this branch.
Do a full review, verifying that all code snippets compile, the code is executable,
and ALL the tests pass. Run them as docker containers, never locally.
```

## Run the tests
Add the test script to `package.json` if it isn't there already:
```json
{
"scripts": {
"test": "jest"
}
}
```
Then run the tests:
```console
$ npm test
```
You should see output like:
```text
PASS src/customer-repository.test.js
Customer Repository
✓ should create and return multiple customers (5 ms)
Test Suites: 1 passed, 1 total
Tests: 1 passed, 1 total
```
To see what Testcontainers is doing under the hood — which containers it
starts, what versions it uses — set the `DEBUG` environment variable:
```console
$ DEBUG=testcontainers* npm test
```
## Summary
The Testcontainers for Node.js library helps you write integration tests using
the same type of database (Postgres) that you use in production, instead of
mocks. Because you aren't using mocks and instead talk to real services, you're
free to refactor code and still verify that the application works as expected.
In addition to PostgreSQL, Testcontainers provides dedicated
[modules](https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-node/tree/main/packages/modules)
for many SQL databases, NoSQL databases, messaging queues, and more.
