Podman should default to sqlite for new installs, however to not break
upgrades we should detect if a boltdb database exists and use that in
such case. Now in order to distinguish between an explicitly set
"sqlite" and "boltdb" and nothing set we use an empty default.
With that podman can know if we really should use the default or if it
was configured for a db explicitly. The actual detection logic must be
implemented in podman as we only know the file locations there.
This commit also drops the unused StateType as this was not used at all.

The on-going work of adding a new database backend to Podman requires it
to be configurable in containers.conf. To prevent any breaking changes,
the backend defaults to Podman's current boltdb backend. Also export
the parsing function for it be usable by Podman.
NOTE: documentation will be added once the database rewrite in Podman
has been completed. I want to avoid any incomplete docs from leaking
into a release.
