Adds more documentation for labels and adds the label instruction to the man-pages. Also included is a document called "Labels - custom meta-data in Docker" in the user-guide, this is still a work-in-progress I started to describe the "namespaces" conventions, an example on storing structured data. I ran a bit "out of steam" (writers block?) on that document, but kept it in (for now), in case it still ends up useful. The Remote API documentation changes will need to be moved to the docker_remote_api_v1.18.md document when rebasing the whole PR.

Getting the IP address of a container instance
To get the IP address of a container use:
# docker inspect --format='{{.NetworkSettings.IPAddress}}' 1eb5fabf5a03
172.17.0.2
Listing all port bindings
One can loop over arrays and maps in the results to produce simple text output:
# docker inspect --format='{{range $p, $conf := .NetworkSettings.Ports}} \
{{$p}} -> {{(index $conf 0).HostPort}} {{end}}' 1eb5fabf5a03
80/tcp -> 80
Getting information on an image
Use an image's ID or name (e.g., repository/name[:tag]) to get information on it.
# docker inspect 58394af37342
