[Container-tools] how does searching work in cdk docker now ?

[Max Rydahl Andersen]

okey, so seems we are now starting to see the "effect" of docker 
binaries having different behavior/functionallity between plain docker 
and red hat docker.

i.e. redhat docker search results has ability to return result from 
multiple indexes where as plain docker does not.

Thats going to be interesting from a tooling support scenario where the 
docker tooling is relying on docker spotify client which I'm not sure 
they are ok to support Red Hat only specific extensions like this.

Do we know of more "extensions" that Red Hat Docker does that we might 
need to support/handle ?
