Brian Goff bd9d14a07b Add support for reading logs extra attrs
The jsonlog logger currently allows specifying envs and labels that
should be propagated to the log message, however there has been no way
to read that back.

This adds a new API option to enable inserting these attrs back to the
log reader.

With timestamps, this looks like so:
```
92016-04-08T15:28:09.835913720Z foo=bar,hello=world hello
```

The extra attrs are comma separated before the log message but after
timestamps.

Without timestaps it looks like so:
```
foo=bar,hello=world hello
```

NAME

docker-logs - Fetch the logs of a container

SYNOPSIS

docker logs [-f|--follow] [--help] [--since[=SINCE]] [-t|--timestamps] [--tail[="all"]] CONTAINER

DESCRIPTION

The docker logs command batch-retrieves whatever logs are present for a container at the time of execution. This does not guarantee execution order when combined with a docker run (i.e., your run may not have generated any logs at the time you execute docker logs).

The docker logs --follow command combines commands docker logs and docker attach. It will first return all logs from the beginning and then continue streaming new output from the containers stdout and stderr.

Warning: This command works only for the json-file or journald logging drivers.

OPTIONS

--help Print usage statement

--details=true|false Show extra details provided to logs

-f, --follow=true|false Follow log output. The default is false.

--since="" Show logs since timestamp

-t, --timestamps=true|false Show timestamps. The default is false.

--tail="all" Output the specified number of lines at the end of logs (defaults to all logs)

The --since option can be Unix timestamps, date formatted timestamps, or Go duration strings (e.g. 10m, 1h30m) computed relative to the client machines time. Supported formats for date formatted time stamps include RFC3339Nano, RFC3339, 2006-01-02T15:04:05, 2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999, 2006-01-02Z07:00, and 2006-01-02. The local timezone on the client will be used if you do not provide either a Z or a +-00:00 timezone offset at the end of the timestamp. When providing Unix timestamps enter seconds[.nanoseconds], where seconds is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap seconds (aka Unix epoch or Unix time), and the optional .nanoseconds field is a fraction of a second no more than nine digits long. You can combine the --since option with either or both of the --follow or --tail options.

The docker logs --details command will add on extra attributes, such as environment variables and labels, provided to --log-opt when creating the container.
