Fixes#9960
This adds the output of a "Backing Filesystem:" entry to `docker info`
to overlay, aufs, and devicemapper graphdrivers. The default list
includes a fairly complete list of common filesystem names from
linux/include/uapi/linux/magic.h, but if the backing filesystem is not
recognized, the code will simply show "<unknown>"

The documentation on `docker export` doesn't mention that
data in volumes is not included in the export.
This adds a note that volumes are not part of the export
and refers to the "Backup, restore, or migrate data volumes"
to give the user some pointers.
Relates to https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/10095

Add a --readonly flag to allow the container's root filesystem to be
mounted as readonly. This can be used in combination with volumes to
force a container's process to only write to locations that will be
persisted. This is useful in many cases where the admin controls where
they would like developers to write files and error on any other
locations.

We want to be able to use container without the PID namespace. We basically
want containers that can manage the host os, which I call Super Privileged
Containers. We eventually would like to get to the point where the only
namespace we use is the MNT namespace to bring the Apps userspace with it.
By eliminating the PID namespace we can get better communication between the
host and the clients and potentially tools like strace and gdb become easier
to use. We also see tools like libvirtd running within a container telling
systemd to place a VM in a particular cgroup, we need to have communications of the PID.
I don't see us needing to share PID namespaces between containers, since this
is really what docker exec does.
So currently I see us just needing docker run --pid=host

--help and help are successful commands so output should not go to error.
QE teams have requested this change, also users doing docker help | less
or docker run --help | less would expect this to work.
Usage statement should only be printed when the user asks for it.
Errors should print error message and then suggest the docker COMMAND --help
command to see usage information.
The current behaviour causes the user to have to search for the error message
and sometimes scrolls right off the screen. For example a error on a
"docker run" command is very difficult to diagnose.
Finally erros should always exit with a non 0 exit code, if the user
makes a CLI error.

This adds the docker daemon's root directory to docker info when running
in debug mode. This allows the user to view the root directory where
docker is writing and storing state.

I've re-jigged the run man page so that each option's text begins with the
cli's help text for that flag, and then ay subsequent lines in the man page
are carried forward.

Current description is misleading. It make an impression the --icc=false
prevents containers to talk with each other.
