[DOCS] Fix keystore creation instructions for Docker (#77155) (#77559)
Currently, our Docker install docs instruct users to directly bind-mount the `elasticsearch.keystore` file. This can lead to errors:

* If the keystore file doesn't already exist, Docker's `-v` flag will create `elasticsearch.keystore` as a directory. This will block the creation of the keystore file.
* To add or update secure settings, the container needs access to other files in the `config` directory, such as `keystore.tmp`.

This updates the Docker install docs to instruct users to bind-mount the `config` directory rather than `elasticsearch.keystore`. It also adds troubleshooting tips for errors related to the keystore.
