docker config <create/rm/ls/inspect> require swarm mode despite being also a Compose feature

[em411]

Description

When I was trying to use external configs with Docker Compose as documented in the Compose documentation, I encountered an error because docker config command require Docker Swarm mode.

> docker config ls
Error response from daemon: This node is not a swarm manager. Use "docker swarm init" or "docker swarm join" to connect this node to swarm and try again.

Reproduce

1. docker config ls

Expected behavior

docker config commands should work without swarm.
