Use Ubuntu 18.04 on Travis via Docker #41

Travis CI runs their VMs on Ubuntu 14.04 images, which is an issue for us because it does not contain GDL on its repository, forcing us to download and install all dependencies one by one.

The repository where the dependency is located eventually get updated which breaks the Travis buildings (see #39 ).

One solution would be running an updated version of Ubuntu inside a Docker container, as it is suggested in travis-ci/travis-ci#5821

This docs can shed some light on how to do it.
