The new macOS solution on Docker doesn't allow the support for RViz2.
The macOS solution is now going to be based on a UTM Virtual Machine. Webots will still be started on the macOS host to benefit from hardware acceleration. The difference with Docker is that the VM comes with its own screen and can display RViz2 (without hardware acceleration).
This PR replaces the previous TCP host address given by Docker by the one from the VM host machine, so that the TCP client running in the VM can connect to the host local simulation server.
The new installation procedure is located here: macOS-Installation-Guide
This PR also fixes a bug when passing arguments to the TCP client, preventing certain examples to launch (e.g.
webots_ros2_tiago).
