Update cURL example for cURL 7.40 differences

When using cURL 7.40, `localhost` must be omitted:
```console
$ curl --unix-socket /var/run/docker.sock http://containers/json
```
If you have bound the Docker daemon to a different socket path or TCP
port, you would reference that in your cURL rather than the
