Exec=command
Additional arguments for the container; this has exactly the same effect as passing
more arguments after a podman run <image> <arguments> invocation.
The format is the same as for systemd command lines,
However, unlike the usage scenario for similarly-named systemd ExecStart= verb
which operates on the ambient root filesystem, it is very common for container
images to have their own ENTRYPOINT or CMD metadata which this interacts with.
The default expectation for many images is that the image will include an ENTRYPOINT
with a default binary, and this field will add arguments to that entrypoint.
Another way to describe this is that it works the same way as the args field in a Kubernetes pod.
