bake: add call methods support and printing

[tonistiigi]

Define call method in the bake target

target "validate" {
	call = "check"
}

docker buildx bake validate

Set call/check on all active targets

docker buildx bake --call=outline
docker buildx bake --check
docker buildx bake --call check,format=json

The text output of call=outline should be updated in follow-up to include bake definition and variables. Getting variables seems tricky and I think needs HCL parser updates.

Should call be a block type in the bake file when defining subfields? And should it be possible to set control directives here?

# Short form
target "default" {
  call = "check"
}

# Long form
target "default" {
  call = {
    method = "check"
    format = "json"
    error = true # ignorestatus / BUILDKIT_DOCKERFILE_CHECK=error=true
    skip = [ "NoEmptyContinuation", "StageNameCasing" ] # BUILDKIT_DOCKERFILE_CHECK=skip=StageNameCasing,NoEmptyContinuations
  }
}

Yes in the future we would like objects instead of csv values in HCL. This is tracked in #438

[crazy-max]

Should we open another PR for these flags? I don't think this is the same use case as call related to #1072

Also I think it should be a single flag --list defaulting to targets as value but can also be variables? I'm looking at https://github.com/casey/just#command-line-options

[crazy-max]

Maybe we could consider using existing --print flag so we could pass --print=targets or --print=variables and --print would default to --print=definition?

[tonistiigi]

I don't think it is possible to use --print as both bool and string flag.

[colinhemmings]

Unless we have a clear use case, I would be keen not to overcomplicate things at this point. We can always make additional updates in the future

[crazy-max]

list-targets and list-variables have been marked as experimental in the meantime.

format=json is for the whole output atm, so it can be set with --call but in bake definition it is just a method name. Should there be multiple targets with different format, there is no way to print it as if user requests JSON we shouldn't print random text in the middle of the output.

ignorestatus and #check=error=true are not quite the same field as well. I'm not sure if ignorestatus is even worth documenting atm.

Looks flaky

[crazy-max]

Will open a follow-up when #2562 is merged to add cross linking from bake to build

[crazy-max]

@tonistiigi PTAL with my last commit

@crazy-max Something is printing to stdout on format=json I think

[crazy-max]

LGTM

opened #2575 to make sure we don't miss it before GA
