Summary

  • Expand the --init paragraph on the multi-service container page to name Tini and explain that docker-init is backed by Tini
  • Add a concrete docker run --init example showing /sbin/docker-init as PID 1, based on the example from @thaJeztah in the issue
  • Document signal forwarding and zombie process reaping as the two functions of the init process
  • Add the Docker Compose init: true equivalent
  • Add tini and init to page keywords

Fixes #20990

Expand the --init section to name Tini, explain signal forwarding
and zombie reaping, show a concrete process tree example, and
document the Compose init: true equivalent.
