Paweł Gronowski a8a1cfd111 daemon: Add embedded containerd mode ...

Run containerd inside dockerd when the experimental
`embedded-containerd` feature is enabled through `--feature` or the
daemon configuration.

Serve containerd's gRPC API on a Unix socket, or a named pipe on
Windows, for the plugin executor and external tools.
Use an in-memory listener for dockerd's own containerd client. Serve
TTRPC on a platform endpoint so task shims can publish events.

Register only the containerd plugins dockerd needs. Leave CRI, sandbox,
streaming, transfer, NRI, and the restart monitor out of the embedded
server.
Reject `--cri-containerd` when embedded mode is enabled instead of
silently ignoring the requested CRI support.

Check the feature before `ContainerdAddr` so it can override the default
containerd socket supplied by packaged service units. Continue to use
the configured external containerd when the feature is disabled.

Derive the Windows named-pipe address from the daemon state directory so
multiple daemons can run on the same host. Restrict the pipes to the
built-in Administrators group and LocalSystem with the same protected
DACL as dockerd's API pipe, as the default security descriptor depends
on the process token and can expose the containerd endpoints more
broadly than intended. Treat embedded mode as a containerd runtime in
the Windows test environment.

Add the `no_embedded_containerd` build tag so distributors can omit the
embedded plugin graph and its dependencies.
