Michael Crosby 6d5bdff394 Add flag to enable cross domain requests in Api 
Add the -api-enable-cors flag when running docker
in daemon mode to allow CORS requests to be made to
the Remote Api.  The default value is false for this
flag to not allow cross origin request to be made.

Also added a handler for OPTIONS requests the standard
for cross domain requests is to initially make an
OPTIONS request to the api.

=================
Docker Remote API
=================
.. contents:: Table of Contents
1. Brief introduction
=====================
- The Remote API is replacing rcli
- Default port in the docker deamon is 4243
- The API tends to be REST, but for some complex commands, like attach or pull, the HTTP connection is hijacked to transport stdout stdin and stderr
2. Version
==========
The current verson of the API is 1.1
Calling /images/<name>/insert is the same as calling /v1.1/images/<name>/insert
You can still call an old version of the api using /v1.0/images/<name>/insert
3. Endpoints

3. Going further
================
3.1 Inside 'docker run'
-----------------------
Here are the steps of 'docker run' :
* Create the container
* If the status code is 404, it means the image doesn't exists:
* Try to pull it
* Then retry to create the container
* Start the container
* If you are not in detached mode:
* Attach to the container, using logs=1 (to have stdout and stderr from the container's start) and stream=1
* If in detached mode or only stdin is attached:
* Display the container's id
3.2 Hijacking
-------------
In this first version of the API, some of the endpoints, like /attach, /pull or /push uses hijacking to transport stdin,
stdout and stderr on the same socket. This might change in the future.
3.3 CORS Requests
-----------------
To enable cross origin requests to the remote api add the flag "-api-enable-cors" when running docker in daemon mode.
docker -d -H="192.168.1.9:4243" -api-enable-cors
