More improvements can be made, but this makes a start on cleaning up
this page:
- Reorganise configuration file options into sections
- Use tables for related options to make them easier to find
- Add warning about the config file's possibility to contain sensitive information
- Some MarkDown touch-ups (use "console" code-hint to assist copy/paste)

This is mostly a copy of the equivalent `docker secret` commands,
which uses the same mechanisms behind the hood (hence, are 90% the
same).
We can make further refinements to these docs, but this gives us
a starting point.
Adding these documents, because there were some links pointing to
these pages in the docs, but there was no markdown file to link to
on GitHub.

- rename "experimental" to "labs"
- rephrase recommendation for picking a version
- clarify that the "labs" channel provides a superset of the "stable" channel.
- remove "External implementation features" section, because it overlapped
with the "syntax" section.
- removed `:latest` from the "stable" channel (generally not recommended)

- update some examples to show the BuildKit output
- remove some wording about "images" being used for the build cache
- add a link to the `--cache-from` section
- added a link to "scanning your image with `docker scan`"
- updated link to "push your image"

- use "console" for code-hints, to make process output distinguishable
from the commands that are executed
- use a consistent prompt for powershell examples
- minor changes in wording around "build context" to reduce confusion
with `docker context`

Updates the stop.md doc to mention that the stop signal can be changed, either with the Dockerfile or via `docker run --stop-signal`. This is a real gotcha if you're not familiar with this feature and build a container that extends a container that uses `STOPSIGNAL`.

recommend using `docker container prune`, but show an example on
how to combine commands with a bit more context and warnings
about portability/compatibility.
Thanks to Charlie Arehart to do the initial work on this.

Looks like the YAML conversion doesn't like lines starting with `[`, and
causing it to use the "compact" formatting in the generated YAML.
This patch un-wraps these lines to prevent this.

To create this, I ran every JSON document through `jq -S` (which sorts the keys and consistently pretty-prints the result in a format which matches the majority of documents in this file).

The CLI disabled experimental features by default, requiring users
to set a configuration option to enable them.
Disabling experimental features was a request from Enterprise users
that did not want experimental features to be accessible.
We are changing this policy, and now enable experimental features
by default. Experimental features may still change and/or removed,
and will be highlighted in the documentation and "usage" output.
For example, the `docker manifest inspect --help` output now shows:
EXPERIMENTAL:
docker manifest inspect is an experimental feature.
Experimental features provide early access to product functionality. These features
may change between releases without warning or can be removed entirely from a future
release. Learn more about experimental features: https://docs.docker.com/go/experimental/

If a file contains trailing whitespace, the YAML generator uses a
compact format, which is hard to read.

The `ENV key value` form can be ambiguous, for example, the following defines
a single env-variable (`ONE`) with value `"TWO= THREE=world"`:
ENV ONE TWO= THREE=world
While we cannot deprecate/remove that syntax (as it would break existing
Dockerfiles), we should reduce exposure of the format in our examples.

When creating and updating services, we need to avoid unneeded service churn.
The interaction of separate lists to "add" and "drop" capabilities, a special
("ALL") capability, as well as a "relaxed" format for accepted capabilities
(case-insensitive, `CAP_` prefix optional) make this rather involved.
This patch updates how we handle `--cap-add` / `--cap-drop` when _creating_ as
well as _updating_, with the following rules/assumptions applied:
- both existing (service spec) and new (values passed through flags or in
the compose-file) are normalized and de-duplicated before use.
- the special "ALL" capability is equivalent to "all capabilities" and taken
into account when normalizing capabilities. Combining "ALL" capabilities
and other capabilities is therefore equivalent to just specifying "ALL".
- adding capabilities takes precedence over dropping, which means that if
a capability is both set to be "dropped" and to be "added", it is removed
from the list to "drop".
- the final lists should be sorted and normalized to reduce service churn
- no validation of capabilities is handled by the client. Validation is
delegated to the daemon/server.
When deploying a service using a docker-compose file, the docker-compose file
is *mostly* handled as being "declarative". However, many of the issues outlined
above also apply to compose-files, so similar handling is applied to compose
files as well to prevent service churn.
