When committing containers to create new images, accept a container config blob being passed in the body of the API request by adding a Config field to our API structures. Populate it from the body of requests that we receive, and use its contents as the body of requests that we make. Make the libpod commit endpoint split changes values at newlines, just like the compat endpoint does. Pass both the config blob and the "changes" slice to buildah's Commit() API, so that it can handle cases where they overlap or conflict. Signed-off-by: Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>

NAME
podman-commit - Create new image based on the changed container
SYNOPSIS
podman commit [options] container [image]
podman container commit [options] container [image]
DESCRIPTION
podman commit creates an image based on a changed container. The author of the image can be set using the --author OPTION. Various image instructions can be configured with the --change OPTION and a commit message can be set using the --message OPTION. The container and its processes aren't paused while the image is committed. If this is not desired, the --pause OPTION can be set to true. When the commit is complete, Podman prints out the ID of the new image.
If image does not begin with a registry name component, localhost is added to the name.
If image is not provided, the values for the REPOSITORY and TAG values of the created image is set to <none>.
OPTIONS
--author, -a=author
Set the author for the committed image.
--change, -c=instruction
Apply the following possible instructions to the created image:
- CMD
- ENTRYPOINT
- ENV
- EXPOSE
- LABEL
- ONBUILD
- STOPSIGNAL
- USER
- VOLUME
- WORKDIR
Can be set multiple times.
--config=ConfigBlobFile
Merge the container configuration from the specified file into the configuration for the image as it is being committed. The file contents should be a JSON-encoded version of a Schema2Config structure, which is defined at https://github.com/containers/image/blob/v5.29.0/manifest/docker_schema2.go#L67.
--format, -f=oci | docker
Set the format of the image manifest and metadata. The currently supported formats are oci and docker.
The default is oci.
--iidfile=ImageIDfile
Write the image ID to the file.
--include-volumes
Include in the committed image any volumes added to the container by the --volume or --mount OPTIONS to the podman create and podman run commands.
The default is false.
--message, -m=message
Set commit message for committed image.
IMPORTANT: The message field is not supported in oci format.
