SpecGen is our primary container creation abstraction, and is
used to connect our CLI to the Libpod container creation backend.
Because container creation has a million options (I exaggerate
only slightly), the struct is composed of several other structs,
many of which are quite large.
The core problem is that SpecGen is also an API type - it's used
in remote Podman. There, we have a client and a server, and we
want to respect the server's containers.conf. But how do we tell
what parts of SpecGen were set by the client explicitly, and what
parts were not? If we're not using nullable values, an explicit
empty string and a value never being set are identical - and we
can't tell if it's safe to grab a default from the server's
containers.conf.
Fortunately, we only really need to do this for booleans. An
empty string is sufficient to tell us that a string was unset
(even if the user explicitly gave us an empty string for an
option, filling in a default from the config file is acceptable).
This makes things a lot simpler. My initial attempt at this
changed everything, including strings, and it was far larger and
more painful.
Also, begin the first steps of removing all uses of
containers.conf defaults from client-side. Two are gone entirely,
the rest are marked as remove-when-possible.

add a new option --preserve-fd that allows to specify a list of FDs to
pass down to the container.
It is similar to --preserve-fds but it allows to specify a list of FDs
instead of the maximum FD number to preserve.
--preserve-fd and --preserve-fds are mutually exclusive.
It requires crun since runc would complain if any fd below
--preserve-fds is not preserved.

Add --rdt-class=COS to the create and run command to enable the
assignment of a container to a Class of Service (COS). The COS
represents a part of the cache based on the Cache Allocation Technology
(CAT) feature that is part of Intel's Resource Director Technology
(Intel RDT) feature set. By assigning a container to a COS, all PID's of
the container have only access to the cache space defined for this COS.
The COS has to be pre-configured based on the resctrl kernel driver.
cat_l2 and cat_l3 flags in /proc/cpuinfo represent CAT support for cache
level 2 and 3 respectively.

The original SELinux support in Docker and Podman does not follow the
default SELinux rules for how label transitions are supposed to be
handled. Containers always switch their user and role to
system_u:system_r, rather then maintain the collers user and role.
For example
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:container_t:s0:c1,c2
Advanced SELinux administrators want to confine users but still allow
them to create containers from their role, but not allow them to launch
a privileged container like spc_t.
This means if a user running as
container_user_u:container_user_r:container_user_t:s0
Ran a container they would get
container_user_u:container_user_r:container_t:s0:c1,c2
If they run a privileged container they would run it with:
container_user_u:container_user_r:container_user_t:s0
If they want to force the label they would get an error
podman run --security-opt label=type:spc_t ...
Should fail. Because the container_user_r can not run with the spc_t.
SELinux rules would also prevent the user from forcing system_u user and
the sytem_r role.

the combination --pod and --userns is already blocked. Ignore the
PODMAN_USERNS variable when a pod is used, since it would cause to
create a new user namespace for the container.
Ideally a container should be able to do that, but its user namespace
must be a child of the pod user namespace, not a sibling. Since
nested user namespaces are not allowed in the OCI runtime specs,
disallow this case, since the end result is just confusing for the
user.

Add --restart flag to pod create to allow users to set the
restart policy for the pod, which applies to all the containers
in the pod. This reuses the restart policy already there for
containers and has the same restart policy options.
Add "never" to the restart policy options to match k8s syntax.
It is a synonym for "no" and does the exact same thing where the
containers are not restarted once exited.
Only the containers that have exited will be restarted based on the
restart policy, running containers will not be restarted when an exited
container is restarted in the same pod (same as is done in k8s).

Currently Podman prevents SELinux container separation,
when running within a container. This PR adds a new
--security-opt label=nested
When setting this option, Podman unmasks and mountsi
/sys/fs/selinux into the containers making /sys/fs/selinux
fully exposed. Secondly Podman sets the attribute
run.oci.mount_context_type=rootcontext
This attribute tells crun to mount volumes with rootcontext=MOUNTLABEL
as opposed to context=MOUNTLABEL.
With these two settings Podman inside the container is allowed to set
its own SELinux labels on tmpfs file systems mounted into its parents
container, while still being confined by SELinux. Thus you can have
nested SELinux labeling inside of a container.

For systems that have extreme robustness requirements (edge devices,
particularly those in difficult to access environments), it is important
that applications continue running in all circumstances. When the
application fails, Podman must restart it automatically to provide this
robustness. Otherwise, these devices may require customer IT to
physically gain access to restart, which can be prohibitively difficult.
Add a new `--on-failure` flag that supports four actions:
- **none**: Take no action.
- **kill**: Kill the container.
- **restart**: Restart the container. Do not combine the `restart`
action with the `--restart` flag. When running inside of
a systemd unit, consider using the `kill` or `stop`
action instead to make use of systemd's restart policy.
- **stop**: Stop the container.
To remain backwards compatible, **none** is the default action.

The linter ensures a common code style.
- use switch/case instead of else if
- use if instead of switch/case for single case statement
- add space between comment and text
- detect the use of defer with os.Exit()
- use short form var += "..." instead of var = var + "..."
- detect problems with append()
```
newSlice := append(orgSlice, val)
```
This could lead to nasty bugs because the orgSlice will be changed in
place if it has enough capacity too hold the new elements. Thus we
newSlice might not be a copy.
Of course most of the changes are just cosmetic and do not cause any
logic errors but I think it is a good idea to enforce a common style.
