Until Podman v4.3, privileged rootfull containers would expose all the
host devices to the container while rootless ones would exclude
`/dev/ptmx` and `/dev/tty*`.
When 5a2405ae1b3a ("Don't mount /dev/tty* inside privileged containers
running systemd") landed, rootfull containers started excluding all the
`/dev/tty*` devices when the container would be running in systemd
mode, reducing the disparity between rootless and rootfull containers
when running in this mode.
However, this commit regressed some legitimate use cases: exposing
non-virtual-terminal tty devices (modems, arduinos, serial
consoles, ...) to the container, and the regression was addressed in
f4c81b0aa5fd ("Only prevent VTs to be mounted inside privileged
systemd containers").
This now calls into question why all tty devices were historically
prevented from being shared to the rootless non-privileged containers.
A look at the podman git history reveals that the code was introduced
as part of ba430bfe5ef6 ("podman v2 remove bloat v2"), and obviously
was copy-pasted from some other code I couldn't find.
In any case, we can easily guess that this check was put for the same
reason 5a2405ae1b3a was introduced: to prevent breaking the host
environment's consoles. This also means that excluding *all* tty
devices is overbearing, and should instead be limited to just virtual
terminals like we do on the rootfull path.
This is what this commit does, thus making the rootless codepath behave
like the rootfull one when in systemd mode.
This leaves `/dev/ptmx` as the main difference between the two
codepath. Based on the blog post from the then-runC maintainer[1] and
this Red Hat bug[2], I believe that this is intentional and a needed
difference for the rootless path.

The container lock is released before stopping/killing which implies
certain race conditions with, for instance, the cleanup process changing
the container state to stopped, exited or other states.
The (remaining) flakes seen in #16142 and #15367 strongly indicate a
race in between the stopping/killing a container and the cleanup
process. To fix the flake make sure to ignore invalid-state errors.
An alternative fix would be to change `KillContainer` to not return such
errors at all but commit c77691f06f61 indicates an explicit desire to
have these errors being reported in the sig proxy.
[NO NEW TESTS NEEDED] as it's a race already covered by the system
tests.

Every time I look at a container-removal issue I wonder why the
container isn't locked directly here, so let's add a comment here.
I am not sure whether I would be better if callers took care of
locking but for now the comment will safe the future me and probably
other readers some time.

Prior to this commit, the podman-machine tests only ran for PRs.
However, now that these tasks are also being used to capture a uniform
set of performance benchmarks, they should probably run on branches as
well. This also fixes a stream of branch-CI run failures due to the
artifacts-task failing to download/archive (missing) benchmark data.

Increase the loop range from 5 to 20 to make sure we give the service
enough time to transition to inactive. Other tests have the same range
with 0.5 seconds sleeps, so I expect the new value to be sufficient and
consistent.

On occasion, developers need to run the latest or bleeding-edge
netavark/aardvark-dns in the podman CI environment. Enable this through
use of magic strings in the PR title, but only if the PR is marked as a
draft. The intent being, when the PR is ready for review, the current
CI VM package versions will be used. Hopefully also reminding the PR
author to remove the magic strings from the title, remove draft status,
and push the final set of changes to be merged.
Also, add documentation about this new magic PR title string and CI's
behaviors.

The StoppedByUser variable indicates that the container was
requested to stop by a user. It's used to prevent restart policy
from firing (so that a restart=always container won't restart if
the user does a `podman stop`. The problem is we were setting it
*very* late in the stop() function. Originally, this was fine,
but after the changes to add the new Stopping state, the logic
that triggered restart policy was firing before StoppedByUser was
even set - so the container would still restart.
Setting it earlier shouldn't hurt anything and guarantees that
checks will see that the container was stopped manually.

The kube-play test file was a rat's nest of long complicated
yaml strings all differing only slightly. Clean it up, by
adding a helper function with optional parameters. The
helper is ugly, but the actual test code (the important
stuff) is cleaner.

While manually playing with --service-container, I encountered a number
of too verbose logs. For instance, there's no need to error-log when
the service-container has already been stopped.
For testing, add a new kube test with a multi-pod YAML which will
implicitly show that #17024 is now working.
