Impose moratorium on remote registry access

A moratorium has been added to the road map to add a moratorium on adding
remote registry access to commands that don't already do so.

## 2.3 Remote Registry Operations
A large amount of work is ongoing in the area of image distribution and
provenance. This includes moving to the V2 Registry API and heavily
refactoring the code that powers these features. The desired result is more
secure, reliable and easier to use image distribution.
Part of the problem with this part of the code base is the lack of a stable
and flexible interface. If new features are added that access the registry
without solidifying these interfaces, achieving feature parity will continue
to be elusive. While we get a handle on this situation, we are imposing a
moratorium on new code that accesses the Registry API in commands that don't
already make remote calls.
Currently, only the following commands cause interaction with a remote
registry:
- push
- pull
- run
- build
- search
- login
In the interest of stabilizing the registry access model during this ongoing
work, we are not accepting additions to other commands that will cause remote
interaction with the Registry API. This moratorium will lift when the goals of
the distribution project have been met.
