Sebastiaan van Stijn b79d684653 Deprecate non-standard (config) fields in image inspect output
The `Config` field returned by this endpoint (used for "image inspect") returns
additional fields that are not part of the image's configuration and not part of
the [Docker Image Spec] and the [OCI Image Spec].

These additional fields are included in the response, due to an
implementation detail, where the [api/types.ImageInspec] type used
for the response is using the [container.Config] type.

The [container.Config] type is a superset of the image config, and while the
image's Config is used as a _template_ for containers created from the image,
the additional fields are set at runtime (from options passed when creating
the container) and not taken from the image Config.

These fields are never set (and always return the default value for the type),
but are not omitted in the response when left empty. As these fields were not
intended to be part of the image configuration response, they are deprecated,
and will be removed from the API.

The following fields are currently included in the API response, but
are not part of the underlying image's Config, and deprecated:

- `Hostname`
- `Domainname`
- `AttachStdin`
- `AttachStdout`
- `AttachStderr`
- `Tty`
- `OpenStdin`
- `StdinOnce`
- `Image`
- `NetworkDisabled` (already omitted unless set)
- `MacAddress` (already omitted unless set)
- `StopTimeout` (already omitted unless set)

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!
