Tonis Tiigi 3d86b0c79b Implement content addressability for plugins
Move plugins to shared distribution stack with images.

Create immutable plugin config that matches schema2 requirements.

Ensure data being pushed is same as pulled/created.

Store distribution artifacts in a blobstore.

Run init layer setup for every plugin start.

Fix breakouts from unsafe file accesses.

Add support for `docker plugin install --alias`

Uses normalized references for default names to avoid collisions when using default hosts/tags.

Some refactoring of the plugin manager to support the change, like removing the singleton manager and adding manager config struct.

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:

      --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

plugin                  latest              A sample plugin for Docker   true

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