The trust code used to parse the console output of `docker push` to
extract the digest, tag, and size information and determine what to
sign. This is fragile and might give an attacker control over what gets
signed if the attacker can find a way to influence what gets printed as
part of the push output.
This commit sends the push metadata out-of-band. It introduces an `Aux`
field in JSONMessage that can carry application-specific data alongside
progress updates. Instead of parsing formatted output, the client looks
in this field to get the digest, size, and tag from the push.

pkg/ is a collection of utility packages used by the Docker project without being specific to its internals.
Utility packages are kept separate from the docker core codebase to keep it as small and concise as possible.
If some utilities grow larger and their APIs stabilize, they may be moved to their own repository under the
Docker organization, to facilitate re-use by other projects. However that is not the priority.
The directory pkg is named after the same directory in the camlistore project. Since Brad is a core
Go maintainer, we thought it made sense to copy his methods for organizing Go code :) Thanks Brad!
Because utility packages are small and neatly separated from the rest of the codebase, they are a good
place to start for aspiring maintainers and contributors. Get in touch if you want to help maintain them!
