Scilla binaries for simplified installation. #789

Several users of Scilla are not familiar with the Ocaml ecosystem & often find it troublesome to compile scilla binaries.

I was wondering if it was possible to have portable binaries or binaries with necessary depencies. That users can install with out having to compile scilla tooling from scratch?

@as1ndu would docker images work?

@vaivaswatha I guess we could update the installation instructions with a Docker-based setup and show e.g. how the VS Code plugin and the Scilla Emacs mode could be used with that

@vaivaswatha I am not really sure if docker images can be integrated with the VScode.
