It should be possible for logging drivers to be external plugins, similar to how volumes and networks work.
This will allow people to write and update logging drivers without having to get them merged upstream and wait for a Docker release. It'll also allow users to write custom logging drivers for their infrastructure without having to build custom versions of Docker.
We will probably still want to ship some popular drivers by default (e.g. json, syslog, and fluentd).
