Brian Goff 96b0320d5c Add docker plugin upgrade 
This allows a plugin to be upgraded without requiring to
uninstall/reinstall a plugin.
Since plugin resources (e.g. volumes) are tied to a plugin ID, this is
important to ensure resources aren't lost.

The plugin must be disabled while upgrading (errors out if enabled).
This does not add any convenience flags for automatically
disabling/re-enabling the plugin during before/after upgrade.

Since an upgrade may change requested permissions, the user is required
to accept permissions just like `docker plugin install`.

Usage:  docker plugin create [OPTIONS] PLUGIN PLUGIN-DATA-DIR

Create a plugin from a rootfs and configuration. Plugin data directory must contain config.json and rootfs directory.

Options:
      --compress   Compress the context using gzip 
      --help       Print usage

Creates a plugin. Before creating the plugin, prepare the plugin's root filesystem as well as the config.json

The following example shows how to create a sample plugin.


$ ls -ls /home/pluginDir

4 -rw-r--r--  1 root root 431 Nov  7 01:40 config.json
0 drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 420 Nov  7 01:40 rootfs

$ docker plugin create plugin /home/pluginDir
plugin

NAME                  	TAG                 DESCRIPTION                  ENABLED
plugin                  latest              A sample plugin for Docker   true

The plugin can subsequently be enabled for local use or pushed to the public registry.
