Podman 1.6.2 changed systemd mode auto-detection from commands ending in
``init`` to hard-coded paths ``/sbin/init`` and ``/usr/sbin/init``. This
broke FreeIPA container. ``podman run`` and ``podman create`` now
activate systemd mode when the command is ``/usr/local/sbin/init``.

at the same time want to create a terminal.
It can be used as:
podman run -v /dev:/dev --mount type=devpts,target=/dev/pts ...

Docker and CNI have very different ideas of what 0.0.0.0 means.
Docker takes it to be 0.0.0.0/0 - that is, bind to every IPv4
address on the host. CNI (and, thus, root Podman) take it to mean
the literal IP 0.0.0.0. Instead, CNI interprets the empty string
("") as "bind to all IPs".
We could ask CNI to change, but given this is established
behavior, that's unlikely. Instead, let's just catch 0.0.0.0 and
turn it into "" when we parse ports.

Podman is committed to inclusivity, a core value of open source. Historically, there have been technology terms that are problematic and divisive, and should be changed. We are currently taking time to audit our repository in order to eliminate such terminology, and replace it with more inclusive terms. We are starting where we can, with our own code, comments, and documentation. However, such terms may be used in dependencies, and must be used in our repositories at the current moment for compatibility. Podman will change these terms in our repo as soon as new and better terminology is available to us via our dependencies.

--sdnotify container|conmon|ignore
With "conmon", we send the MAINPID, and clear the NOTIFY_SOCKET so the OCI
runtime doesn't pass it into the container. We also advertise "ready" when the
OCI runtime finishes to advertise the service as ready.
With "container", we send the MAINPID, and leave the NOTIFY_SOCKET so the OCI
runtime passes it into the container for initialization, and let the container advertise further metadata.
This is the default, which is closest to the behavior podman has done in the past.
The "ignore" option removes NOTIFY_SOCKET from the environment, so neither podman nor
any child processes will talk to systemd.
This removes the need for hardcoded CID and PID files in the command line, and
the PIDFile directive, as the pid is advertised directly through sd-notify.

I didn't believe that this was actually legal, but it looks like
it is. And, unlike our previous understanding (host port being
empty means just use container port), empty host port actually
carries the same meaning as `--expose` + `--publish-all` (that
is, assign a random host port to the given container port). This
requires a significant rework of our port handling code to handle
this new case. I don't foresee this being commonly used, so I
optimized having a fixed port number as fast path, which this
random assignment code running after the main port handling code
only if necessary.

When running under systemd there is no need to create yet another
cgroup for the container.
With conmon-delegated the current cgroup will be split in two sub
cgroups:
- supervisor
- container
The supervisor cgroup will hold conmon and the podman process, while
the container cgroup is used by the OCI runtime (using the cgroupfs
backend).

We initially believed that implementing this required support for
restarting containers after reboot, but this is not the case.
The unless-stopped restart policy acts identically to the always
restart policy except in cases related to reboot (which we do not
support yet), but it does not require that support for us to
implement it.
Changes themselves are quite simple, we need a new restart policy
constant, we need to remove existing checks that block creation
of containers when unless-stopped was used, and we need to update
the manpages.

When the container uses journald logging, we don't want to
automatically use the same driver for its exec sessions. If we do
we will pollute the journal (particularly in the case of
healthchecks) with large amounts of undesired logs. Instead,
force exec sessions logs to file for now; we can add a log-driver
flag later (we'll probably want to add a `podman logs` command
that reads exec session logs at the same time).
As part of this, add support for the new 'none' logs driver in
Conmon. It will be the default log driver for exec sessions, and
can be optionally selected for containers.
Great thanks to Joe Gooch (mrwizard@dok.org) for adding support
to Conmon for a null log driver, and wiring it in here.

Add a `--replace` flag to the `container {create,run}` commands.
If another container with the same name already exists, it will
be replaced and removed.
Adding this flag is motivated by #5485 to make running Podman in systemd
units (or any other scripts/automation) more robust. In case of a
crash, a container may not be removed by a sytemd unit anymore. The
`--replace` flag allows for supporting crashes.

* options missing from man pages
* options misspelled or misformatted in man pages (usually
misplaced asterisks or missing dashes, but see --dns-opt)
* one spurious comma in the actual source file --help
This is a fix in which I iterate over 'podman CMD --help'
and check for presence in man pages. The other way around
(look for flags in man pages, check podman CMD --help)
is probably impossible: there are too many special cases
