various extensions

• added "pull" function to module:docker
• if only 1 tag exists in Docker, select it automatically
• updated docs
• fixed ck run docker --command="something" on Linux
• added --min_run to module:program to avoid pre/post processing and just run a command.
  Useful to install Python requirements for a given program CMD.
  We use it in MLPerf automation.

automatically installing Python requirements from pulled repos

• auto-install Python requirements from pulled repositories
• added --bash to docker:module to run bash in a container
• removed outdated and unnecessary files
• added --command flag to "run docker" to run a specific command such as ck run docker:xyz --command="ck show env"

many enhancements to handle adaptive Docker containers via CK

• added module "docker.template" to support adaptive CK containers
• added rebuild function to module:docker to rebuild images (#145)
• added support for multiple Docker tags in module:docker . See example: https://github.com/octoml/mlops/tree/main/docker/ck-template-mlperf
• added "default_org" key in a CK Docker entry meta to specify default organization
• added "outdated" and "aging" keys in Docker images to warn user about the status of a given Docker container
• added main CK and MLPerf repositories to Zenodo to ensure reproducibilty
• added common function "tested" to mark CK entries as tested, i.e. "ck tested docker:mlperf-inference-v0.7.openvino"

"ck search" improvement for entries with inheritance

• improved "ck search" to search tags in entries with inheritance
• fixed function "ck status"

enhancement of the inheritance mechanism and a few bug fixes

We keep original meta of a given entry when updating, copying or moving it rather than expanding it with all the base entries.W

basic support for inheritance of CK entries

• added support for basic inheritance in CK entries via "_base_entry" key. Useful to simplify program, package and soft modules. See ticket #143.
• added program.template, soft.template and package.template modules to describe base entries for inheritance.

added missing requirements.txt to the main distro

  • Added --print_files to "ck benchmark program" to print multiple files after MLPerf benchmarking
  • Removed several data zips that are not required for the releases
