Implement configurable detach key

Implement configurable detach keys (for `attach`, exec`, `run` and
`start`) using the client-side configuration

- Adds a `--detach-keys` flag to `attach`, `exec`, `run` and `start`
  commands.
- Adds a new configuration field (in `~/.docker/config.json`) to
  configure the default escape keys for docker client.

## Override the detach sequence
If you want, you can configure a override the Docker key sequence for detach.
This is is useful if the Docker default sequence conflicts with key squence you
use for other applications. There are two ways to defines a your own detach key
sequence, as a per-container override or as a configuration property on your
entire configuration.
To override the sequence for an individual container, use the
`--detach-keys="<sequence>"` flag with the `docker attach` command. The format of
the `<sequence>` is either a letter [a-Z], or the `ctrl-` combined with any of
the following:
* `a-z` (a single lowercase alpha character )
* `@` (ampersand)
* `[` (left bracket)
* `\\` (two backward slashes)
* `_` (underscore)
* `^` (caret)
These `a`, `ctrl-a`, `X`, or `ctrl-\\` values are all examples of valid key
sequences. To configure a different configuration default key sequence for all
containers, see [**Configuration file** section](cli.md#configuration-files).
