The IndexServerAddress field was as part of the initial Windows implementation
of the engine. For legal reasons, Microsoft Windows (and thus Docker images
based on Windows) were not allowed to be distributed through non-Microsoft
infrastructure. As a temporary solution, a dedicated "registry-win-tp3.docker.io"
registry was created to serve Windows images.
Currently, this field always shows "https://index.docker.io/v1/", which is
confusing, because that address is not used for the registry (only for
authentication and "v1" search).
docker info
...
Registry: https://index.docker.io/v1/
Starting with b4ca1c7368, this field is also
no longer used during authentication, and a3d56e7d06
removed the (deprecated) ElectAuthServer() which was previously used to
query it.
Given that there's currently no practical use for this information, and
it only adds "noise" (and confusion), this patch removes it from the default
output.
For now, the field is (still) available for those that want to use it;
docker info --format '{{.IndexServerAddress}}'
https://index.docker.io/v1/
But it won't be printed by default.

This patch adds additional information to the Client section of the output.
We were already outputting versions of CLI Plugins, and the Server, but not
for the Client.
Adding this information can help with bug-reports where the reporter only
provided the `docker info` output, or (e.g.) only `docker --version`. The
platform name helps identify what kind of builds the user has installed
(e.g. docker's docker-ce packages have "Docker Engine - Community" set
for this), although we should consider including "packager" information
as a more formalized field for this information.
Before this patch:
$ docker info
Client:
Context: default
Debug Mode: false
Plugins:
buildx: Docker Buildx (Docker Inc.)
Version: v0.10.4
Path: /usr/libexec/docker/cli-plugins/docker-buildx
...
With this patch applied:
$ docker info
Client: Docker Engine - Community
Version: 24.0.0-dev
Context: default
Debug Mode: false
Plugins:
buildx: Docker Buildx (Docker Inc.)
Version: v0.10.4
Path: /usr/libexec/docker/cli-plugins/docker-buildx

That is, reindent the two sections by one space.
While the code was done by hand the `.golden` files had the extra space
inserted with emacs' `string-insert-rectangle` macro to (try to) avoid possible
manual errors. The docs were edited the same way.

Right now the only client side info we have is whether debug is enabled, but we
expect more in the future.
We also preemptively prepare for the possibility of multiple errors when
gathering both daemon and client info.
