Tycho Andersen a208413ac0 fix package builds in some cases
0eb21735ae accidentally broke some package
builds by switching linuxkit/alpine to linuxkit/containerd. Let's revert
the ones that shouldn't be there.

Closes #1991

swarmd package

This adds a swarmd package for Moby which contains the standalone swarmkit orchestration daemon (swarmd) and CLI tool (swarmctl).

The package tracks [docker/swarmkit#1965][PR1965] which is a WIP PR adding a containerd executor to swarmkit.

With a suitable moby image (such as swarmd.yml from this directory) something like this should work:

runc exec swarmd swarmctl service create --image docker.io/library/nginx:alpine --name nginx
runc exec swarmd swarmctl service ls

TODO

Currently the swarm state directory needs to be at a path which is identical from the PoV of both the containerd and swarmd processes. For now this means that the swarmkit state is put in /var/lib/containerd/swarmd.

Bootstrapping a cluster needs more invesigation. Tokens and join addresses can currently only be passed on the swarmd command line which is inconvenient for automated image deployment.

Swarmkit [PR 1965][PR1965] also contains a number of TODOs which are not separately listed here.
