Error running make clusters on Apple M1 Pro macOS: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon

[kahirokunn]

What happened:
I attempted to run make clusters after cloning the submariner-operator repository, but encountered errors indicating that the Docker daemon could not be connected to.

Specifically, I received the following error messages:

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///Users/user-name/.docker/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?
docker: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///Users/user-name/.docker/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

What you expected to happen:
I expected the make clusters command to successfully create the clusters without any errors.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

1. Clone the submariner-operator repository:

   git clone https://github.com/submariner-io/submariner-operator
   cd submariner-operator
   

2. Run make clusters:

   make clusters
