Support custom LoggingTypes #2443

My use case requires the use of a custom logging driver. Due to the representation of LoggingType as an enum:

docker-java/docker-java-api/src/main/java/com/github/dockerjava/api/model/LogConfig.java

Lines 66 to 80 in 20f0831

public enum LoggingType {
NONE("none"),
DEFAULT("json-file"),
LOCAL("local"),
ETWLOGS("etwlogs"),
JSON_FILE("json-file"),
SYSLOG("syslog"),
JOURNALD("journald"),
GELF("gelf"),
FLUENTD("fluentd"),
AWSLOGS("awslogs"),
DB("db"), // Synology specific driver
SPLUNK("splunk"),
GCPLOGS("gcplogs"),
LOKI("loki");

this appears not possible using docker-java. This issue previously came up in #783 but was resolved by manually adding the log driver type in question as an element of the enum, which does not solve the issue in the more general case.

In case anybody else is running into this issue, a possible workaround for now is to name your custom logging driver "db" (--alias-ing a plugin you're installing should also work?) and use LoggingType.DB since "db" isn't present in Docker installations by default.

The other option would be to specify a default log-driver in daemon.json and not supply a LogConfig to docker-java. I've confirmed in this case that the default specified in daemon.json is used.
