Joachim Wiberg 31502c8aab confd: add support for upgrading container images
This patch adds a new CLI command 'container upgrade foo', where 'foo'
is the name of the container.  If more than one container use the same
image, multiple upgrades must be done because a container runs not on
the 'image:tag' but on the hash of the 'image:tag' it was created from.

Rename "done" queue to "active", since we want to recreate an active
container after fetching an updated base image.

Joachim Wiberg aafa88b648 confd: add support for container volumes
This commit adds support for writable container volumes.  A volume, when
compared to a mount, is a writable directory created when the container
starts and is automatically rsync'ed with the underlying directory it
is mounted on on first use.  A mount otoh does not rsync so it results
only in an empty directory inside the container.

The podman/docker mount feature will be used later to bind mount single
files or sharing directories from the host, e.g., /sys/class/leds/ to
one of more containers.

Note: unused volumes are automatically pruned.  Hence, a volume
      currently cannot be moved to another container.

Joachim Wiberg d8dde9cde2 confd: add support for custom container ENTRYPOINT
This was a tough nut to crack.  Turns out the trick to changing the
ENTRYPOINT is to set --entrypoint=command and then call 'podman create
... command args'.  Not entirely obvious since the documented approach
is to use a JSON array as the argument: podman create
--entrypoint='["command", "args" ]'.

Admittedly, encoding this in C to transfer it via a POSIX shell script
to the command line, is not the easiest task I've undertaken.  So I gave
up and found this workaround.

Worth noting, however, is that one *must* set `--entrypoint`, it is not
enough to just append the command to the 'podman create' command line.
Due to differences in docker and podman, we cannot supply the full args
to an alternate entrypoint command.  But for the command to actually run
we need to override the image's ENTRYPOINT and send the command and args
as the last arguments on the command line to podman create.

Joachim Wiberg 2b19b61068 confd: add support for manual start of containers
This commit adds 'manual:yes' to the container's Finit service
configuration and changes from pod: to container: prefix for a
unique namespace to prevent collision with regular services.

The prefix container: is more correct that pod:, which should
be reserved for any future pod support.
