Visual Studio Code/Github Codespaces Dev Containers (#4035) (#4122)

Having dev containers makes its easier, faster and secure to setup the
dev environment for the repository.

The pull request consists of:

- .devcontainer folder with:
- **devcontainer.json :** (minimal necessary vscode extensions and
settings)
- **docker-compose.yaml :** (could be modified to run necessary services
as per need. Ex vectordbs, databases)
    - **Dockerfile:**(non root with dev tools)
- Changes to README - added the Open in Github Codespaces Badge - added
the Open in dev container Badge
