feat: Add configuration option to enable/disable Docker Scout

- Integrated ConfigManager to retrieve 'enable_docker_scout' setting.
- Modified DockerScoutManager to respect the configuration option, allowing users to enable or disable Docker Scout functionality.
- Updated init_hook to conditionally check Docker Scout installation based on configuration.
- Added logic to short-circuit Docker Scout operations if disabled via configuration.
