Previously libpod CI was fairly straight-forward, run unit and
integration tests in a standard set of 3 VMs. Off on the side was a
single special case of running tests as an ordinary user. There is a
desire to stop using the PAPR system to support testing inside of a
container.
Since having two special cases potentially invites more
down the road, make provisions to handle them more gracefully. This
commit introduces an environment variable: ``$SPECIALMODE``. It's
value has the following meanings within the CI scripts:
Mode 'none': Nothing special, business as usual (default)
Mode 'rootless': Rootless testing
Mode 'in_podman': Build container, run integration tests in it.
This will make adding additional special-cases later easier, as well as
extending the special cases in a Matrix across multiple OS's.

simplify the rootless implementation to use a single user namespace
for all the running containers.
This makes the rootless implementation behave more like root Podman,
where each container is created in the host environment.
There are multiple advantages to it: 1) much simpler implementation as
there is only one namespace to join. 2) we can join namespaces owned
by different containers. 3) commands like ps won't be limited to what
container they can access as previously we either had access to the
storage from a new namespace or access to /proc when running from the
host. 4) rootless varlink works. 5) there are only two ways to enter
in a namespace, either by creating a new one if no containers are
running or joining the existing one from any container.
Containers created by older Podman versions must be restarted.

in the few places where we care about skipping the storage
initialization, we can simply use the process effective UID, instead
of relying on a global boolean flag.

Cursory examination of man pages shows a number of typos:
- missing hyphens
- missing blank line
- longer option should precede shorter option
This is not an extensive fix, there's still a lot that could
be cleaned up.

libpod.conf defaults to /usr/share/containers/libpod.conf.
Clarify how administrators can override it and the location
of the users version for rootless mode.

--trace, --help and --version were not capatilized like the rest of the
global options. This patch fixes this problem.

Docker's upstream name validation regex has two major differences
from ours that we pick up in this PR.
The first requires that the first character of a name is a letter
or number, not a special character.
The second allows periods in names.

We have an issue in the current implementation where the cleanup
process is not able to umount the storage as it is running in a
separate namespace.
Simplify the implementation for user namespaces by not using an
intermediate mount namespace. For doing it, we need to relax the
permissions on the parent directories and allow browsing
them. Containers that are running without a user namespace, will still
maintain mode 0700 on their directory.

Currently in rootless containers, we end up not using the blob cache.
We also don't store the blob cache based on the users specified graph
storage. This change will cause the cache directory to be stored with
the rest of the containe images.
While doing this patch, I found that we had duplicated GetSystemContext in
two places in libpod. I cleaned this up.

We accidentally patched this out trying to enable ns:/path/to/ns
This should restore the ability to configure nondefault CNI
networks with Podman, by ensuring that they request creation of a
network namespace.
Completely remove the WithNetNS() call when we do use an explicit
namespace from a path. We use that call to indicate that a netns
is going to be created - there should not be any question about
whether it actually does.
Fixes#2795
