Mention "docker login" in push/pull documentation
It was suggested to me that documentation for "docker pull" and "docker push" should reference "docker login", to make clearer how to specify credentials for a push or pull operation. Add a note to the manual pages and reference documentation explaining how registry credentials are managed. Signed-off-by: Aaron Lehmann <[email protected]>
