Volumes default path #16

The default path for host volumes (tested with Manjaro linux (ARCH) and macOS) is /var/lib/docker/volumes.

macOS is unable to create "/var/lib/docker/volumes/other-folders" even when run as root. I've tried to create the folder manually (/var/lib/docker/volumes/debian8_mariadb10_data/_data) and docker is unable to bind.

From my personal opinion, i would like data folders created on each DISTRO folder, within a volumes folder. This strategy would solve the problem with relative paths on volume configurations for each docker-compose.yml file.

Eg.

volumes:
    - ./volumes/mariadb10_data:/var/lib/mysql
