Aaron Lehmann 78c0d50c9f Add force option to service update
Currently, there's no way to restart the tasks of a service without
making an actual change to the service. This leads to us giving awkward
workarounds as in
https://github.com/docker/docker.github.io/pull/178/files, where we tell
people to scale a service up and down to restore balance, or make
unnecessary changes to trigger a restart.

This change adds a --force option to "docker service update", which
forces the service to be updated even if no changes require that.

Since rolling update parameters are respected, the user can use
"docker service --force" to do a rolling restart. For example, the
following is supported:

   docker service update --force --update-parallelism 2 \
   --update-delay 5s myservice

Since the default value of --update-parallelism is 1, the default
behavior is to restart the service one task at a time.

README.md

The non-reference docs have been moved!

The documentation for Docker Engine has been merged into the general documentation repo.

See the README for instructions on contributing to and building the documentation.

If you'd like to edit the current published version of the Engine docs, do it in the master branch here: https://github.com/docker/docker.github.io/tree/master/engine

If you need to document the functionality of an upcoming Engine release, use the vnext-engine branch: https://github.com/docker/docker.github.io/tree/vnext-engine/engine

The reference docs have been left in docker/docker (this repo), which remains the place to edit them.

The docs in the general repo are open-source and we appreciate your feedback and pull requests!
