add two new options to the keep-id user namespace option:
- uid: allow to override the UID used inside the container.
- gid: allow to override the GID used inside the container.
For example, the following command will map the rootless user (that
has UID=0 inside the rootless user namespace) to the UID=11 inside the
container user namespace:
$ podman run --userns=keep-id:uid=11 --rm -ti fedora cat /proc/self/uid_map
0 1 11
11 0 1
12 12 65525

* Replace "setup", "lookup", "cleanup", "backup" with
"set up", "look up", "clean up", "back up"
when used as verbs. Replace also variations of those.
* Improve language in a few places.

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.
This should help maintainability.

From a security point of view, it would be nice to be able to map a
rootless usernamespace that does not use your own UID within the
container.
This would add protection against a hostile process escapping the
container and reading content in your homedir.

As of podman 1.8.0, because of commit da7595a, the default approach of providing
port-forwarding in rootless mode has switched (and been hard-coded) to rootlessport,
for the purpose of providing super performance. The side-effect of this switch is
source within the container to the port-forwarded service always appears to originate
from 127.0.0.1 (see issue #5138).
This commit allows a user to specify if they want to revert to the previous approach
of leveraging slirp4netns add_hostfwd() api which, although not as stellar performance,
restores usefulness of seeing incoming traffic origin IP addresses.
The change should be transparent; when not specified, rootlessport will continue to be
used, however if specifying --net slirp4netns:slirplisten the old approach will be used.
Note: the above may imply the restored port-forwarding via slirp4netns is not as
performant as the new rootlessport approach, however the figures shared in the original
commit that introduced rootlessport are as follows:
slirp4netns: 8.3 Gbps,
RootlessKit: 27.3 Gbps,
which are more than sufficient for many use cases where the origin of traffic is more
important than limits that cannot be reached due to bottlenecks elsewhere.

change the default on cgroups v2 and create a new cgroup namespace.
When a cgroup namespace is used, processes inside the namespace are
only able to see cgroup paths relative to the cgroup namespace root
and not have full visibility on all the cgroups present on the
system.
The previous behaviour is maintained on a cgroups v1 host, where a
cgroup namespace is not created by default.

If we call Container(), we expect the namespace to be prefixed with "container:".
Add this check, and refactor to use named const strings instead of string literals

allow a container to run in a new cgroup namespace.
When running in a new cgroup namespace, the current cgroup appears to
be the root, so that there is no way for the container to access
cgroups outside of its own subtree.
By default it uses --cgroup=host to keep the previous behavior.
To create a new namespace, --cgroup=private must be provided.

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.
