On macOS (and Windows), docker containers run as a more heavyweight VM unlike on Linux. One effect of this is that the code in the entrypoint script will see the UID and GID of the home directory as 0 and try to create a user with UID 0. Work around this limitation by allowing users to pass in the UID and GID when running the container. Update the Readme.md to suggest using `$(id -u)` and `$(id -g)`.
