The tree output currently uses the same sort order as the existing
non-tree output, and orders the images by "created" time in descending
order;
docker image ls
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
<none> <none> 8262a6d8c38a 7 minutes ago 13.6MB
docker-cli-dev latest f5f0547476ee 12 minutes ago 762MB
nginx alpine 2140dad235c1 2 weeks ago 76.7MB
alpine latest beefdbd8a1da 6 weeks ago 24.2MB
However, the `--tree` view does not have a `CREATED` column, which makes
the output order seem "random". With the tree view being more verbose,
it may also be harder to find back images in the list when they're not sorted
in an easy to discover way.
This patch changes the sort order:
- alphabetically (natural sort) for tagged images
- untagged images are sorted last, as they're likely less relevant
to the user, and should not be "polluting" th top of the list.
- if multiple untagged images exist, they are sorted by created
date (descending) to get a stable order.
Before this patch:
$ docker image ls --tree

Don't output the extra spacing around the images when none of the
top-level image entries has any children.
This makes the list look better when ran against the graphdrivers image
store.
