I've discovered a bunch more metrics that we could make use via abra:

the equivalent of journalctl -fu docker.service via https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/docker/docker/client#Client.Events which we could stream via abra server logs? This is logs of every deployed container and the daemon and containerd logs merged together. Good to poll when something is really going wrong on the server
an entire disk usage report via https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/docker/docker/client#Client.DiskUsage! there are options to specicfy, e.g. only volumes, only images, etc. this is a pretty costly operation for large deployments but could be useful. perhaps a abra server disk?
per-container stats via https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/docker/docker/client#Client.ContainerStats which is the equivalent of docker stats afaiu. that would be handy to gather resource usage on a pretty fine-grained level via abra. that could be uhmmm abra app stats?
we can also poll general docker daemon info via https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/docker/docker/client#Client.Info e.g. docker version which is docker info afaiu. maybe a abra server info?

These could be cool and simple to add! I certainly use them via the Docker CLI quite a bit and would deffo like the convenience via abra. The code to wrap them is pretty trivial, so it's mostly a bitta CLI UI/UX work and testing.

I've discovered a bunch more metrics that we could make use via `abra`: - the equivalent of `journalctl -fu docker.service` via https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/docker/docker/client#Client.Events which we could stream via `abra server logs`?
