This the patch implements a notificaiton mechanism from the init process
in the container to systemd-nspawn.
The switch --notify-ready=yes configures systemd-nspawn to wait the "READY=1"
message from the init process in the container to send its own to systemd.
--notify-ready=no is equivalent to the previous behavior before this patch,
systemd-nspawn notifies systemd with a "READY=1" message when the container is
created. This notificaiton mechanism uses socket file with path relative to the contanier
"/run/systemd/nspawn/notify". The default values it --notify-ready=no.
It is also possible to configure this mechanism from the .nspawn files using
NotifyReady. This parameter takes the same options of the command line switch.
Before this patch, systemd-nspawn notifies "ready" after the inner child was created,
regardless the status of the service running inside it. Now, with --notify-ready=yes,
systemd-nspawn notifies when the service is ready. This is really useful when
there are dependencies between different contaniers.
Fixes https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/1369
Based on the work from https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3022
Testing:
Boot a OS inside a container with systemd-nspawn.
Note: modify the commands accordingly with your filesystem.
1. Create a filesystem where you can boot an OS.
2. sudo systemd-nspawn -D ${HOME}/distros/fedora-23/ sh
2.1. Create the unit file /etc/systemd/system/sleep.service inside the container
(You can use the example below)
2.2. systemdctl enable sleep
2.3 exit
3. sudo systemd-run --service-type=notify --unit=notify-test
${HOME}/systemd/systemd-nspawn --notify-ready=yes
-D ${HOME}/distros/fedora-23/ -b
4. In a different shell run "systemctl status notify-test"
When using --notify-ready=yes the service status is "activating" for 20 seconds
before being set to "active (running)". Instead, using --notify-ready=no
the service status is marked "active (running)" quickly, without waiting for
the 20 seconds.
This patch was also test with --private-users=yes, you can test it just adding it
at the end of the command at point 3.

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 should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that
stuff in every file.

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.

This is a continuation of the previous include sort patch, which
only sorted for .c files.

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.

.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.
