can't install: Need to update pywin32 dependencies

See original GitHub issue

C:\Users\allen>pip list --outdated --format=columns | findstr docker
docker           2.6.1   3.3.0  wheel

produces the dependency chain:

Collecting pypiwin32==219; sys_platform == "win32" and python_version < "3.6" (from docker==3.3.0)
  Using cached https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/a5/8d/739f12d811d19cd6686f97bb96b65b0e4c8ca428fb02581d872b912b14cf/pypiwin32-219-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl

but I am running the latest pywin32:

C:\Users\allen>pip list --format=columns | findstr pywin32
pywin32                      223

C:\Users\allen>pip show pywin32

Not sure of why the version guards came (into requirements.txt/setup.py) in but pywin32 is supported on all Windows Python releases: https://github.com/mhammond/pywin32/releases

Currently it’s not possible to install on Windows with Python 3.10 due to this issue.

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pywin32==227; sys_platform == "win32" (from docker) (from versions: 302, 303)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for pywin32==227; sys_platform == "win32"

If you look at pywin32 227 files: https://pypi.org/project/pywin32/227/#files

There is no Windows wheel for Python 3.10.

At least pywin32==302 or newer is required for Windows support with Python 3.10: https://pypi.org/project/pywin32/302/#files

I have the same problem. Windows + Python 3.10 builds are failing because the pinned version of pywin32 in docker-py is 227, which does not have a Python 3.10 wheel.
