Description
In the swarm mode cluster, the task's IP address allocated by the manager node's IPAM，not the task's node's IPAM driver. Some drivers allocate ip range to nodes like "calico-ipam driver" can not works on swarm mode. So libnetwork should publish the endpoint's node location to IPAM driver to find which IP should be allocate to the endpoint.

Research direction
Start by tracing how swarm-mode tasks receive IP addresses from the manager node's IPAM and how the IPAM driver is called. Determine how the endpoint's node location could be exposed to the driver, and consider the calico-ipam limitation described in the issue. Done means node-aware allocation works for swarm endpoints without breaking existing IPAM behavior.
