When Libpod removes a container, there is the possibility that
removal will not fully succeed. The most notable problems are
storage issues, where the container cannot be removed from
c/storage.
When this occurs, we were faced with a choice. We can keep the
container in the state, appearing in `podman ps` and available for
other API operations, but likely unable to do any of them as it's
been partially removed. Or we can remove it very early and clean
up after it's already gone. We have, until now, used the second
approach.
The problem that arises is intermittent problems removing
storage. We end up removing a container, failing to remove its
storage, and ending up with a container permanently stuck in
c/storage that we can't remove with the normal Podman CLI, can't
use the name of, and generally can't interact with. A notable
cause is when Podman is hit by a SIGKILL midway through removal,
which can consistently cause `podman rm` to fail to remove
storage.
We now add a new state for containers that are in the process of
being removed, ContainerStateRemoving. We set this at the
beginning of the removal process. It notifies Podman that the
container cannot be used anymore, but preserves it in the DB
until it is fully removed. This will allow Remove to be run on
these containers again, which should successfully remove storage
if it fails.

Refactor the `RuntimeConfig` along with related code from libpod into
libpod/config. Note that this is a first step of consolidating code
into more coherent packages to make the code more maintainable and less
prone to regressions on the long runs.
Some libpod definitions were moved to `libpod/define` to resolve
circular dependencies.

Also, ensure that we don't try to mount them without root - it
appears that it can somehow not error and report that mount was
successful when it clearly did not succeed, which can induce this
case.
We reuse the `--force` flag to indicate that a volume should be
removed even after unmount errors. It seems fairly natural to
expect that --force will remove a volume that is otherwise
presenting problems.
Finally, ignore EINVAL on unmount - if the mount point no longer
exists our job is done.

Add ability to evict a container when it becomes unusable. This may
happen when the host setup changes after a container creation, making it
impossible for that container to be used or removed.
Evicting a container is done using the `rm --force` command.

We have leaked the exit number codess all over the code, this patch
removes the numbers to constants.

This is mostly used with Systemd, which really wants to manage
CGroups itself when managing containers via unit file.

When we fail to remove a container's SHM, that's an error, and we
need to report it as such. This may be part of our lingering
storage woes.
Also, remove MNT_DETACH. It may be another cause of the storage
removal failures.

There's no way to get the error if we successfully get an exit code (as it's just printed to stderr instead).
instead of relying on the error to be passed to podman, and edit based on the error code, process it on the varlink side instead
Also move error codes to define package

the compilation demands of having libpod in main is a burden for the
remote client compilations. to combat this, we should move the use of
libpod structs, vars, constants, and functions into the adapter code
where it will only be compiled by the local client.
this should result in cleaner code organization and smaller binaries. it
should also help if we ever need to compile the remote client on
non-Linux operating systems natively (not cross-compiled).
