Add getMappedPort(int, InternetProtocol) for UDP port lookups

[mohitduhan19]

Closes #554.

What

Adds a way to look up the host-mapped port for a UDP (or any non-default-protocol) container port, as agreed in the issue discussion:

• ContainerState.getMappedPort(int originalPort, InternetProtocol protocol) — new overload; the existing getMappedPort(int) now delegates to it with InternetProtocol.TCP, so behavior for existing callers is unchanged.
• GenericContainer.addExposedPort(int port, InternetProtocol protocol) and a fluent withExposedPort(int port, InternetProtocol protocol) — lets a UDP port be exposed with a randomly assigned host port in the first place (this already existed internally on ContainerDef, just not exposed publicly on GenericContainer).

Why

Right now there's no supported way to read back the mapped host port for a UDP port that was exposed with a random host port — getMappedPort always looks up a TCP ExposedPort. This has been requested since 2019 for use cases like UDP-based protocols (e.g. Jaeger, Netflow/IPFix/sFlow collectors) where the port isn't fixed.

Testing

Added unit tests in ContainerStateTest covering:

• a UDP binding is correctly resolved via the new overload
• the "not mapped" error path includes the protocol in the message

I wasn't able to run the full Gradle build in the environment I prepared this in (no network access to Maven Central from there), so I'm opening this as a draft until CI confirms it builds and the test suite passes — will mark it ready for review once green.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds protocol-aware TCP and UDP port exposure and mapping APIs. Default port mapping remains TCP-based. Mapping errors now include the requested protocol, with tests covering UDP bindings and missing mappings.

Changes

Protocol-aware container ports

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Protocol-aware port exposure core/src/main/java/org/testcontainers/containers/GenericContainer.java	GenericContainer adds addExposedPort(int, InternetProtocol) and fluent withExposedPort(int, InternetProtocol) methods.
Protocol-aware port mapping core/src/main/java/org/testcontainers/containers/ContainerState.java, core/src/test/java/org/testcontainers/containers/ContainerStateTest.java	ContainerState adds protocol-specific lookup. The existing method defaults to TCP. Tests cover UDP bindings and unmapped-port errors that include the protocol.

UDP-only containers can fail when using getFirstMappedPort, though an explicit UDP lookup provides a practical workaround.

Preserve the protocol for getFirstMappedPort.

When a GenericContainer exposes only 12345/udp, GenericContainer.getExposedPorts() converts the ExposedPort to 12345 and discards the protocol. getFirstMappedPort() then calls getMappedPort(int), which defaults to TCP. The lookup throws even when 12345/udp has a valid binding.

Implement this lookup in GenericContainer with the ExposedPort protocol, or otherwise preserve that protocol at this boundary. Callers can use getMappedPort(12345, InternetProtocol.UDP) as a workaround. Add a UDP regression test.
