Lennart Poettering 770b5ce4fc tmpfiles: automatically remove old machine snapshots at boot
Remove old temporary snapshots, but only at boot. Ideally we'd have
"self-destroying" btrfs snapshots that go away if the last last
reference to it does. To mimic a scheme like this at least remove the
old snapshots on fresh boots, where we know they cannot be referenced
anymore. Note that we actually remove all temporary files in
/var/lib/machines/ at boot, which should be safe since the directory has
defined semantics. In the root directory (where systemd-nspawn
--ephemeral places snapshots) we are more strict, to avoid removing
unrelated temporary files.

This also splits out nspawn/container related tmpfiles bits into a new
tmpfiles snippet to systemd-nspawn.conf
