The CLI disabled experimental features by default, requiring users
to set a configuration option to enable them.
Disabling experimental features was a request from Enterprise users
that did not want experimental features to be accessible.
We are changing this policy, and now enable experimental features
by default. Experimental features may still change and/or removed,
and will be highlighted in the documentation and "usage" output.
For example, the `docker manifest inspect --help` output now shows:
EXPERIMENTAL:
docker manifest inspect is an experimental feature.
Experimental features provide early access to product functionality. These features
may change between releases without warning or can be removed entirely from a future
release. Learn more about experimental features: https://docs.docker.com/go/experimental/

To test, add $(pwd)/build/plugins-linux-amd64 to "cliPluginsExtraDirs" config and run:
make plugins
make binary
HELLO_EXPERIMENTAL=1 docker helloworld
To show it enabled:
HELLO_EXPERIMENTAL=1 DOCKER_CLI_EXPERIMENTAL=enabled docker helloworld

Fairly straight forward. It became necessary to wrap `Plugin.Err` with a type
which implements `encoding.MarshalText` in order to have that field rendered
properly in the `docker info -f '{{json}}'` output.
Since I changed the type somewhat I also added a unit test for `formatInfo`.

That is, the helper to be used from the plugin's `main`.
Also add a `helloworld` plugin example and build integration.
