This attempts to make it clearer that the --cgroup-parent option is only used
for the containers used during build. Instead of mentioning "build container",
I opted for using "RUN instructions" (to match the --network description),
although this may not be ideal (as it assumes the "Dockerfile" front-end, which
of course may not be the case).

In previous versions of the Docker API, `system prune --volumes` and `volume prune`
would remove all dangling volumes. With API v1.42, this was changed so that only
anonymous volumes would be removed unless the all filter was specified.
Some of the docs were updated in #4218, however, there were a couple of places
left that didn't make the anonymous vs named volumes distinction clear.
This replaces #4079, which was bitrotted by #4218. See also #4028.
Closes#4079.

The flag-set that was returned is a pointer to the command's Flags(), which
is in itself passed by reference (as it is modified / set up).
This patch removes the flags return, to prevent assuming it's different than
the command's flags.
While SetupRootCommand is exported, a search showed that it's only used internally,

commit c846428cb6 added proxies to the

The `~/.dockercfg` file was replaced by `~/.docker/config.json` in 2015
(github.com/docker/docker/commit/18c9b6c6455f116ae59cde8544413b3d7d294a5e).
Commit b83bc67136 (v23.0.0, but backported to
v20.10) added a warning if no "current" config file was found but a legacy
file was, and if the CLI would fall back to using the deprecated file.
Commit ee218fa89e removed support for the
legacy file, but kept a warning in place if a legacy file was in place,
and now ignored.
This patch removes the warning as well, fully deprecating the legacy
`~/.dockercfg` file.

The `oom-score-adjust` option was added to prevent the daemon from being
OOM-killed before other processes. This option was mostly added as a
convenience, as running the daemon as a systemd unit was not yet common.
Having the daemon set its own limits is not best-practice, and something
better handled by the process-manager starting the daemon.
Docker v20.10 and newer no longer adjust the daemon's OOM score by default,
instead setting the OOM-score to the systemd unit (OOMScoreAdjust) that's
shipped with the packages.
Users currently depending on this feature are recommended to adjust the
daemon's OOM score using systemd or through other means, when starting
the daemon.

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.

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.

(github.com/docker/docker/commit/18c9b6c6455f116ae59cde8544413b3d7d294a5e),
but the CLI still falls back to checking if this file exists if no current

Given that no version of the CLI since Docker v1.7.0 has created this file,
and if such a file exists, it means someone hasn't re-authenticated for
5 years, it's probably safe to remove this fallback.
