The current code shifting an integer 1 failed for capabilities like
CAP_MAC_ADMIN (numerical value 33). This caused issues when specifying
them in the nspawn configuration file. Using an uint64_t 1 instead.
The similar code for processing the --capability command line option
was already correctly working.
Now that we have ported nspawn's seccomp code to the generic code in
seccomp-util, let's extend it to support whitelisting and blacklisting
of specific additional syscalls.
This uses similar syntax as PID1's support for system call filtering,
but in contrast to that always implements a blacklist (and not a
whitelist), as we prepopulate the filter with a blacklist, and the
unit's system call filter logic does not come with anything
prepopulated.
(Later on we might actually want to invert the logic here, and
whitelist rather than blacklist things, but at this point let's not do
that. In case we switch this over later, the syscall add/remove logic of
this commit should be compatible conceptually.)

Add a new --pivot-root argument to systemd-nspawn, which specifies a
directory to pivot to / inside the container; while the original / is
pivoted to another specified directory (if provided). This adds
support for booting container images which may contain several bootable
sysroots, as is common with OSTree disk images. When these disk images
are booted on real hardware, ostree-prepare-root is run in conjunction
with sysroot.mount in the initramfs to achieve the same results.
This adds a new concept of network "zones", which are little more than bridge
devices that are automatically managed by nspawn: when the first container
referencing a bridge is started, the bridge device is created, when the last
container referencing it is removed the bridge device is removed again. Besides
this logic --network-zone= is pretty much identical to --network-bridge=.
The usecase for this is to make it easy to run multiple related containers
(think MySQL in one and Apache in another) in a common, named virtual Ethernet
broadcast zone, that only exists as long as one of them is running, and fully
automatically managed otherwise.
In order to implement this we change the bool arg_userns into an enum
UserNamespaceMode, which can take one of NO, PICK or FIXED, and replace the
arg_uid_range_pick bool with it.
This adds a new switch --as-pid2, which allows running commands as PID 2, while a stub init process is run as PID 1.
This is useful in order to run arbitrary commands in a container, as PID1's semantics are different from all other
processes regarding reaping of unknown children or signal handling.
The new switch operates like --network-veth, but may be specified
multiple times (to define multiple link pairs) and allows flexible
definition of the interface names.
This is an independent reimplementation of #1678, but defines different
semantics, keeping the behaviour completely independent of
--network-veth. It also comes will full hook-up for .nspawn files, and
the matching documentation.
Make sure we acquire CAP_NET_ADMIN if we require virtual networking.
Make sure we imply virtual ethernet correctly when bridge is request.

- Rely everywhere that we use abs() on the error code passed in anyway,
thus don't need to explicitly negate what we pass in
- Never attach synthetic error number information to log messages. Only
log about errors we *receive* with the error number we got there,
don't log any synthetic error, that don#t even propagate, but just eat
up.
- Be more careful with attaching exactly the error we get, instead of
errno or unrelated errors randomly.
- Fix one occasion where the error number and line number got swapped.
- Make sure we never tape over OOM issues, or inability to resolve
specifiers
.nspawn fiels are simple settings files that may accompany container
images and directories and contain settings otherwise passed on the
nspawn command line. This provides an efficient way to attach execution
data directly to containers.
