podman machine: enforce a single search registry

Enforce "docker.io" to be the only search registry.  Short-name
resolution for remote clients is not fully supported since there is no
means to prompt.  Enforcing a single registry  works around the problem
since prompting only fires with more than one search registry.

Fixes: containers#11489
