Docker v1.12 is really old, so no need to continue including this
in the docs. Also reformatted a markdown table.

Fix 19 typos, grammatical errors and duplicated words.
These fixes have minimal impact on the code as these are either in the
doc files or in comments inside the code files.

Since CLI was moved to a separate repo, these references are incorrect.
Fixed with the help of sed script, verified manually.

Allows for a plugin type that can be used to scrape metrics.
This is useful because metrics are not neccessarily at a standard
location... `--metrics-addr` must be set, and must currently be a TCP
socket.
Even if metrics are done via a unix socket, there's no guarentee where
the socket may be located on the system, making bind-mounting such a
socket into a container difficult (and racey, failure-prone on daemon
restart).
Metrics plugins side-step this issue by always listening on a unix
socket and then bind-mounting that into a known path in the plugin
container.
Note there has been similar work in the past (and ultimately punted at
the time) for consistent access to the Docker API from within a
container.
Why not add metrics to the Docker API and just provide a plugin with
access to the Docker API? Certainly this can be useful, but gives a lot
of control/access to a plugin that may only need the metrics. We can
look at supporting API plugins separately for this reason.

Logging plugins use the same HTTP interface as other plugins for basic
command operations meanwhile actual logging operations are handled (on
Unix) via a fifo.
The plugin interface looks like so:
```go
type loggingPlugin interface {
StartLogging(fifoPath string, loggingContext Context) error
StopLogging(fifoPath)
```
This means a plugin must implement `LoggingDriver.StartLogging` and
`LoggingDriver.StopLogging` endpoints and be able to consume the passed
in fifo.
Logs are sent via stream encoder to the fifo encoded with protobuf.

Tested using global-net-plugin-ipc which sets PidHost in config.json.
Plugins might need access to host pid namespace. Add support for that.
Tested using aragunathan/global-net-plugin-ipc which sets "pidhost" in
config.json. Observed using `readlink /proc/self/ns/pid` that plugin and
host have the same ns.

Plugins might need access to host ipc namespace. A good usecase is
a volume plugin running iscsi multipath commands that need access to
host kernel locks.
Tested with a custom plugin (aragunathan/global-net-plugin-full) that's
built with `"ipchost" : true` in config.json. Observed using
`readlink /proc/self/ns/ipc` that plugin and host have the same ns.

This persists the "propagated mount" for plugins outside the main
rootfs. This enables `docker plugin upgrade` to not remove potentially
important data during upgrade rather than forcing plugin authors to hard
code a host path to persist data to.
Also migrates old plugins that have a propagated mount which is in the
rootfs on daemon startup.

This fix adds `--filter capability=[volumedriver|authz]` to `docker plugin ls`.
The related docs has been updated.
An integration test has been added.

Legacy plugins expect host-relative paths (such as for Volume.Mount).
However, a containerized plugin cannot respond with a host-relative
path. Therefore, this commit modifies new volume plugins' paths in Mount
and List to prepend the container's rootfs path.
This introduces a new PropagatedMount field in the Plugin Config.
When it is set for volume plugins, RootfsPropagation is set to rshared
and the path specified by PropagatedMount is bind-mounted with rshared
prior to launching the container. This is so that the daemon code can
access the paths returned by the plugin from the host mount namespace.
