containerConfiguration type dockerCompatible not valid anymore

Before submitting a bug please check the following:

• [X] Start a new R session
• [X] Check your credentials file
• [X] Install the latest doAzureParallel package
• [X] Submit a minimal, reproducible example
• [X] run sessionInfo()

Description It seems like Azure Batch has changed its generation of a pool. I tried creating a pool using the cluster.json from the example file, but every time I get the follow error when making the cluster:

Error in makeCluster("cluster.json") : InvalidPropertyValue: The value provided for one of the properties in the request body is invalid. PropertyName: type PropertyValue: dockerCompatible Reason: The value provided for one of the properties in the request body is invalid.

In the code cluster.R we can find this setting, which is not configurable:

install docker

containerConfiguration <- list(
  type = "dockerCompatible"
)

Instruction to repro the problem if applicable Generate an authentication file and a default cluster file and try to make a cluster with this. Probably this 'type' setting has changed in Azure batch.
