The docker command already needs to know about systemd-nspawn to launch it. So it can just give the --slice option. If you want this to be part of the /system slice, than anything like --slice=system-<container-id>.slice will be fine. And the limits can be set on the slice as wanted. Note that the slice unit doesn't have to "exist", it will be created when referenced.
