Improve error message when the the podman service is not enabled
Currently if server is not connected, we return an error message that
is confusing users on Mac and Windows boxes. The hope here is to make
it a little easier to discover that a Podman service is required.
This message is similar to what Docker puts out so people might under
stand it better.
