Start by tracing Docker CLI shell completion for the --device flag and how the GET /info response is consumed. Check how detected CDI devices are represented there, then verify that those devices are offered as --device completions when the feature is complete.

Starting from 28.2.0 Docker exposes detected CDI devices in the GET /info endpoint: https://github.com/moby/moby/pull/49980
