Being able to easily identify what lock has been allocated to a
given Libpod object is only somewhat useful for debugging lock
issues, but it's trivial to expose and I don't see any harm in
doing so.

We added the concept of image volumes in 2.2.0, to support
inspecting an image from within a container. However, this is a
strictly read-only mount, with no modification allowed.
By contrast, the new `image` volume driver creates a c/storage
container as its underlying storage, so we have a read/write
layer. This, in and of itself, is not especially interesting, but
what it will enable in the future is. If we add a new command to
allow these image volumes to be committed, we can now distribute
volumes - and changes to them - via a standard OCI image registry
(which is rather new and quite exciting).
Future work in this area:
- Add support for `podman volume push` (commit volume changes and
push resulting image to OCI registry).
- Add support for `podman volume pull` (currently, we require
that the image a volume is created from be already pulled; it
would be simpler if we had a dedicated command that did the
pull and made a volume from it)
- Add support for scratch images (make an empty image on demand
to use as the base of the volume)
- Add UOR support to `podman volume push` and
`podman volume pull` to enable both with non-image volume
drivers

Also, do a general cleanup of all the timeout code. Changes
include:
- Convert from int to *uint where possible. Timeouts cannot be
negative, hence the uint change; and a timeout of 0 is valid,
so we need a new way to detect that the user set a timeout
(hence, pointer).
- Change name in the database to avoid conflicts between new data
type and old one. This will cause timeouts set with 4.2.0 to be
lost, but considering nobody is using the feature at present
(and the lack of validation means we could have invalid,
negative timeouts in the DB) this feels safe.
- Ensure volume plugin timeouts can only be used with volumes
created using a plugin. Timeouts on the local driver are
nonsensical.
- Remove the existing test, as it did not use a volume plugin.
Write a new test that does.
The actual plumbing of the containers.conf timeout in is one line
in volume_api.go; the remainder are the above-described cleanups.

Libpod requires that all volumes are stored in the libpod db. Because
volume plugins can be created outside of podman, it will not show all
available plugins. This podman volume reload command allows users to
sync the libpod db with their external volume plugins. All new volumes
from the plugin are also created in the libpod db and when a volume from
the db no longer exists it will be removed if possible.
There are some problems:
- naming conflicts, in this case we only use the first volume we found.
This is not deterministic.
- race conditions, we have no control over the volume plugins. It is
possible that the volumes changed while we run this command.

add an option to configure the driver timeout when creating a volume.
The default is 5 seconds but this value is too small for some custom drivers.

Currently Docker copies up the first volume on a mountpoint with
data.
Fixes: https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/12714
Also added NeedsCopyUP, NeedsChown and MountCount to the podman volume
inspect code.

This implements support for mounting and unmounting volumes
backed by volume plugins. Support for actually retrieving
plugins requires a pull request to land in containers.conf and
then that to be vendored, and as such is not yet ready. Given
this, this code is only compile tested. However, the code for
everything past retrieving the plugin has been written - there is
support for creating, removing, mounting, and unmounting volumes,
which should allow full functionality once the c/common PR is
merged.
A major change is the signature of the MountPoint function for
volumes, which now, by necessity, returns an error. Named volumes
managed by a plugin do not have a mountpoint we control; instead,
it is managed entirely by the plugin. As such, we need to cache
the path in the DB, and calls to retrieve it now need to access
the DB (and may fail as such).
Notably absent is support for SELinux relabelling and chowning
these volumes. Given that we don't manage the mountpoint for
these volumes, I am extremely reluctant to try and modify it - we
could easily break the plugin trying to chown or relabel it.
Also, we had no less than *5* separate implementations of
inspecting a volume floating around in pkg/infra/abi and
pkg/api/handlers/libpod. And none of them used volume.Inspect(),
the only correct way of inspecting volumes. Remove them all and
consolidate to using the correct way. Compat API is likely still
doing things the wrong way, but that is an issue for another day.
