With this changeset, we now have a proof of concept of end to end pull.
Up to this point, the relationship between subsystems has been somewhat
theoretical. We now leverage fetching, the snapshot drivers, the rootfs
service, image metadata and the execution service, validating the proposed
model for containerd. There are a few caveats, including the need to move some
of the access into GRPC services, but the basic components are there.
The first command we will cover here is `dist pull`. This is the analog
of `docker pull` and `git pull`. It performs a full resource fetch for
an image and unpacks the root filesystem into the snapshot drivers. An
example follows:
``` console
$ sudo ./bin/dist pull docker.io/library/redis:latest

INFO[0001] unpacking rootfs
```
Note that we haven't integrated rootfs unpacking into the status output, but we
pretty much have what is in docker today (:P). We can see the result of our pull
with the following:
```console
$ sudo ./bin/dist images
REF TYPE DIGEST SIZE
docker.io/library/redis:latest application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json sha256:4c8fb09e8d634ab823b1c125e64f0e1ceaf216025aa38283ea1b42997f1e8059 1.8 kB
```
The above shows that we have an image called "docker.io/library/redis:latest"
mapped to the given digest marked with a specific format. We get the size of
the manifest right now, not the full image, but we can add more as we need it.
For the most part, this is all that is needed, but a few tweaks to the model
for naming may need to be added. Specifically, we may want to index under a few
different names, including those qualified by hash or matched by tag versions.
We can do more work in this area as we develop the metadata store.
The name shown above can then be used to run the actual container image. We can
do this with the following command:
```console
$ sudo ./bin/ctr run --id foo docker.io/library/redis:latest /usr/local/bin/redis-server
1:C 17 Mar 17:20:25.316 # Warning: no config file specified, using the default config. In order to specify a config file use /usr/local/bin/redis-server /path/to/redis.conf

Wow! So, now we are running `redis`!
There are still a few things to work out. Notice that we have to specify the
command as part of the arguments to `ctr run`. This is because are not yet
reading the image config and converting it to an OCI runtime config. With the
base laid in this PR, adding such functionality should be straightforward.
While this is a _little_ messy, this is great progress. It should be easy
sailing from here.

With this PR, we introduce the concept of image handlers. They support
walking a tree of image resource descriptors for doing various tasks
related to processing them. Handlers can be dispatched sequentially or
in parallel and can be stacked for various effects.
The main functionality we introduce here is parameterized fetch without
coupling format resolution to the process itself. Two important
handlers, `remotes.FetchHandler` and `image.ChildrenHandler` can be
composed to implement recursive fetch with full status reporting. The
approach can also be modified to filter based on platform or other
constraints, unlocking a lot of possibilities.
This also includes some light refactoring in the fetch command, in
preparation for submission of end to end pull.

After receiving feedback during containerd summit walk through of the
pull POC, we found that the resolution flow for names was out of place.
We could see this present in awkward places where we were trying to
re-resolve whether something was a digest or a tag and extra retries to
various endpoints.
By centering this problem around, "what do we write in the metadata
store?", the following interface comes about:
```
Resolve(ctx context.Context, ref string) (name string, desc ocispec.Descriptor, fetcher Fetcher, err error)
```
The above takes an "opaque" reference (we'll get to this later) and
returns the canonical name for the object, a content description of the
object and a `Fetcher` that can be used to retrieve the object and its
child resources. We can write `name` into the metadata store, pointing
at the descriptor. Descisions about discovery, trust, provenance,
distribution are completely abstracted away from the pulling code.
A first response to such a monstrosity is "that is a lot of return
arguments". When we look at the actual, we can see that in practice, the
usage pattern works well, albeit we don't quite demonstrate the utility
of `name`, which will be more apparent later. Designs that allowed
separate resolution of the `Fetcher` and the return of a collected
object were considered. Let's give this a chance before we go
refactoring this further.
With this change, we introduce a reference package with helps for
remotes to decompose "docker-esque" references into consituent
components, without arbitrarily enforcing those opinions on the backend.
Utlimately, the name and the reference used to qualify that name are
completely opaque to containerd. Obviously, implementors will need to
show some candor in following some conventions, but the possibilities
are fairly wide. Structurally, we still maintain the concept of the
locator and object but the interpretation is up to the resolver.
For the most part, the `dist` tool operates exactly the same, except
objects can be fetched with a reference:
```
dist fetch docker.io/library/redis:latest
```
The above should work well with a running containerd instance. I
recommend giving this a try with `fetch-object`, as well. With
`fetch-object`, it is easy for one to better understand the intricacies
of the OCI/Docker image formats.
Ultimately, this serves the main purpose of the elusive "metadata
store".

With the rename of fetch to fetch-object, we now introduce the `fetch`
command. It will fetch all of the resources required for an image into
the content store. We'll still need to follow this up with metadata
registration but this is a good start.

To make using the `fetch-object` for demonstrations much easier, the
mediatypes are defaulted when a non-digest object identifier is
provided. We also add support for OCI mediatypes, although they are
mostly unavailable.

To allow us to differentiate from fetching an image, fetch a part of an
image and pulling an image, we now call the `fetch` command the
`fetch-object` command. We can now introduce a command that does the
complete image fetch without creating snapshots, allowing `pull` to
perform the entire process.

Allow deletion of content over the GRPC interface. For now, we are going
with a model that conducts reference management outside of the content
store, in the metadata store but this design is valid either way.

When using the fetcher concurrently, the loop modifying the closed
`base` parameter was causing urls from different digests to be returned
randomly. We copy the the value and then modify it to make it work
correctly.
Luckily, we are using content addressable storage or this would have
been undetectable.
