docs: add reference for "docker config" commands
This is mostly a copy of the equivalent `docker secret` commands,
which uses the same mechanisms behind the hood (hence, are 90% the
same).

We can make further refinements to these docs, but this gives us
a starting point.

Adding these documents, because there were some links pointing to
these pages in the docs, but there was no markdown file to link to
on GitHub.
