I have not looked at the code in detail, but I wanted to point this
out before you respin: I really don't like the name CI_CENGINE :)

Since we're dealing with containers exclusively I'm pretty sure we
can just go with CI_ENGINE and not cause any confusion for users.

The description given above is also not accurate, as far as I can
tell: we use Podman instead of Docker only if we detect that the
former is available, so what we really do is *prefer* Podman, not
default to it. I would document it along the lines of

  CI_ENGINE=auto - container engine to use (podman, docker)

and implement it like

  CI_ENGINE=auto

  # ...

  ifeq ($(CI_ENGINE),auto)
    CI_ENGINE = $(shell ...)
  endif

  # Validate that CI_ENGINE is either podman or docker at this
  # point, and error out otherwise
