docker_container - #65993 - update restart policy (restart policy & restart retries) wit… (#66192)

* #65993 - update restart policy (restart policy & restart retries) without restarting the container

* - proper indentation on the continuation-line
- set restart_policy to the correct value independent from the api version

* - move restart_policy definitions into the if block
- add a new variable for the restart_policy configuration value

* add changelog fragment

* typo; minus -> underscore

* rename changelog fragment to contain the correct module name

* rename restart_policy_config_value to just restart_policy and refer to the correct dict values

(cherry picked from commit 02c126f5ee)
