Motivation ---------- `ImageReference` does not check for illegal characters in parsed image digests and tags. This means that `containertool` will send illegal image names to the registry. The registry will reject them, but the error message might not explain why, so a generic error message will be printed. Runtimes reject illegal image references immediately, without sending them to the registry. Some desktop runtimes accept local image names which the registry will reject; other runtimes reject these names even for local names. `containertool` now also rejects them. Modifications ------------- * Check validity of tags and digests when parsing image names * Change the low-level API functions to accept `Digest` or `Reference` instead of `String`. Result ------ It is impossible to create a `Repository` object containing a malformed tag or digest, because the constructor checks the string value. It is impossible to send a malformed name to the registry because the API wrappers only accept `Digest` or `Reference (Digest | Tag)` objects. Fixes apple#139 Test Plan --------- Existing tests continue to pass. New tests exercise additional checks which were previously missing. Removed tests which checked tags which seemed to be accepted by some desktop runtimes, but which were not accepted by registries.

Motivation
Cherry pick of #140.
ImageReferencedoes not check for illegal characters in parsed image digests and tags. This means thatcontainertoolwill send illegal imagenames to the registry. The registry will reject them, but the error message might not explain why, so a generic error message will be printed. Runtimes reject illegal image references immediately, without sending them to the registry.
Some desktop runtimes accept local image names which the registry will reject; other runtimes reject these names even for local names.
containertoolnow also rejects them.
