Currently the libnetwork function `NewNetwork` does not allow
caller to pass a network ID and it is always generated internally.
This is sufficient for engine use. But it doesn't satisfy the needs
of libnetwork being used as an independent library in programs other
than the engine. This enhancement is one of the many needed to
facilitate a generic libnetwork.

Added NetworkAllocate and NetworkFree apis to the list of
driver apis. The intention of the api is to provide a
centralized way of allocating and freeing network resources
for a network which is cross-host.

Currently driver management logic is tightly coupled with
libnetwork package and that makes it very difficult to
modularize it and use it separately. This PR modularizes
the driver management logic by creating a driver registry
package.

- Move DiscoverNew() and DiscoverDelete() methods into the new interface
- Add DatastoreUpdate notification
- Now this interface can be implemented by any drivers, not only network drivers

- So that a DHCP based plugin can express it needs
the endpoint MAC address when requested for an IP address.
- In such case libnetwork will allocate one if not already

- Allow to create an endpoint as anonymous.
An anonymous endpoint does not get added
to the network service records.

Currently endpoint count is maintained as part of
network object and the endpoint count gets updated
frequently while the rest of network is quite stable.
Because of the frequent updates to endpoint count the
network object is getting marshalled and unmarshalled
ferquently. This is causing a lot of churn and transient
memory usage. Fix this by creating a deparate object of
endpoint count so that only that gets updated.

will trigger auto-allocation for ipv4.
Auto-allocation for ipv6 will still be excluded
in the two cases above.

- libnetwork should reserve only the auxiliary
addresses which belong to the container
addresable pool. And should fail the network
creation if the aux addr does not belong to
the master pool.

Always on watching of networks and endpoints can
affect scalability of the cluster beyond a few nodes.
Remove pro active watching and watch only the objects
you are interested in.

The configuration format for docker runtime is based on daemon flags and
hence adjusting the libnetwork configuration to accomodate it by moving
the TOML based configuration to the dnet tool.
Also changed the controller configuration via options

Currently store makes use of a static isReservedNetwork check to decide
if a network needs to be stored in the distributed store or not. But it
is better if the check is not static, but be determined based on the
capability of the driver that backs the network.
Hence introducing a new capability mechanism to the driver which it can
express its capability during registration. Making use of first such
capability : Scope. This can be expanded in the future for more such cases.

In the present code, each driver package provides a `New()` method
which constructs a driver of its type, which is then registered with
the controller.
However, this is not suitable for the `drivers/remote` package, since
it does not provide a (singleton) driver, but a mechanism for drivers
to be added dynamically. As a result, the implementation is oddly
dual-purpose, and a spurious `"remote"` driver is added to the
controller's list of available drivers.
Instead, it is better to provide the registration callback to each
package and let it register its own driver or drivers. That way, the
singleton driver packages can construct one and register it, and the
remote package can hook the callback up with whatever the dynamic
driver mechanism turns out to be.
NB there are some method signature changes; in particular to
controller.New, which can return an error if the built-in driver
packages fail to initialise.

This commits brings in a functionality for remote drivers to register
with LibNetwork. The Built-In remote driver is responsible for the
actual "remote" plugin to be made available.
Having such a mechanism makes libnetwork core not dependent on any
external plugin mechanism and also the Libnetwork NB apis are free of
Driver interface.
