docs/reference: exec: update some examples
Use /bin/sh in the examples, as it's more likely to be present in a
container than bash (some users got confused by this, so using plain
"sh" in the examples could lead to less confusion).

Also added some extra wording around defaults, and how they're inherited
by the exec'd process.

It's definitely not "perfect" yet (lots to do in this document to improve
it), but it's a start :)

Sebastiaan van Stijn 80b1285fec cli: use custom annotation for aliases
Cobra allows for aliases to be defined for a command, but only allows these
to be defined at the same level (for example, `docker image ls` as alias for
`docker image list`). Our CLI has some commands that are available both as a
top-level shorthand as well as `docker <object> <verb>` subcommands. For example,
`docker ps` is a shorthand for `docker container ps` / `docker container ls`.

This patch introduces a custom "aliases" annotation that can be used to print
all available aliases for a command. While this requires these aliases to be
defined manually, in practice the list of aliases rarely changes, so maintenance
should be minimal.

As a convention, we could consider the first command in this list to be the
canonical command, so that we can use this information to add redirects in
our documentation in future.

Before this patch:

    docker images --help

    Usage:  docker images [OPTIONS] [REPOSITORY[:TAG]]

    List images

    Options:
      -a, --all             Show all images (default hides intermediate images)
      ...

With this patch:

    docker images --help

    Usage:  docker images [OPTIONS] [REPOSITORY[:TAG]]

    List images

    Aliases:
      docker image ls, docker image list, docker images

    Options:
      -a, --all             Show all images (default hides intermediate images)
      ...

remove unneeded comment from reference files

but only their content is included through the YAML does,
so there's no need to have these comments in them

Fix whitespace that caused short-format in generated YAML
If the markdown contains trailing spaces, or has tabs included,
the YAML generator uses a compact format for the text (using `\n`
and `\t`, instead of plain newlines).

The compact format makes it difficult to review changes in the
yaml docs when vendoring in the documentation repository.

This patch:

- removes trailing whitespace
- replaces tabs for spaces
- fixes some minor formatting and markdown issues
