Use rancher container name as docker container name on host #1399

Closed

Description

The actual name of docker containers on hosts is currently the rancher UUID. Now that we have docker labels, we can store the rancher UUID in a label and name the docker container with the same name the user gave it in rancher (with some caveats, see below).

Caveat: we still need to ensure uniqueness because docker requires name uniqueness. So, the implementation will need to make a "best effort" to match the name.

This was originally enumerated as a feature in the native-docker meta-issue but was not implemented in the original implementation and was never broken out into its own issue.
