buildx is missing from docker:20-dind images

[anapsix]

Description

Docker 20-dind images are shipped with docker cli which seems to be missing buildx entirely.. which means support for buildx build --cache-from is not available.
Launching docker buildx build --help on my Macbook shows --cache-from available. However launching the same in container instance of docker:20-dind does not show --cache-from as valid option to buildx build.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

$ docker pull docker:20.10.7-dind
$ docker run -it --rm -e DOCKER_CLI_EXPERIMENTAL=enabled docker:20.10.7-dind sh -c 'docker --help | grep buildx && echo SUCCESS: buildx is available || echo ERROR: buildx is not available'
$ docker run -it --rm docker:20.10.7-dind sh -c 'docker --version; docker buildx build --help | grep cache-from || echo "ERROR: buildx build --cache-from is not supported"'

Describe the results you received:

ERROR: buildx is not available
Docker version 20.10.7, build f0df350
ERROR: buildx build --cache-from is not supported

Describe the results you expected:

SUCCESS: buildx is available
Docker version 20.10.7, build f0df350
      --cache-from stringArray   External cache sources (eg. user/app:cache, type=local,src=path/to/dir)

For reference, #156 includes discussion and clarification on why buildx plugin is not included in docker images. However, the PR (docker/docker-ce-packaging#415) is open to include base plugins in official docker images.

I created an image here: maniator/dind-buildx exactly for this use :-)
