Support for daemon-side auto-remove was added in API v1.25; on older
versions of the daemon, the client was responsible for removing the
container after it exited (see [moby@6dd8e10])
On API versions < 1.30, it used the events API for this purpose, and
would wait for a "die", "detach" or "detroy" events to know the container
exited, and could be removed or (when attached, but without a TTY) to
get the container's exit-status. (see [cli@38591f2]).
API version 1.24 (docker 1.12) is 9 Years old (July 29, 2016), and API
1.30 (docker 17.06) is 8 Years old (Jun 20, 2017), and long EOL. While
technically, a CLI could negotiate API 1.30 or older, this would only
be in cases where either API version negotiation failed, or the version
was explicitly overridden through `DOCKER_API_VERSION` for testing.
Either of those cases would be rare, and not worth the technical complexity
to support. This patch removes support for AutoRemove on API < 1.30.
