Akihiro Suda f103de57ec main: support rootless mode in userns
Running rootless containers in userns is useful for mounting
filesystems (e.g. overlay) with mapped euid 0, but without actual root
privilege.

Usage: (Note that `unshare --mount` requires `--map-root-user`)

  user$ mkdir lower upper work rootfs
  user$ curl http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.7/releases/x86_64/alpine-minirootfs-3.7.0-x86_64.tar.gz | tar Cxz ./lower || ( true; echo "mknod errors were ignored" )
  user$ unshare --mount --map-root-user
  mappedroot# runc spec --rootless
  mappedroot# sed -i 's/"readonly": true/"readonly": false/g' config.json
  mappedroot# mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=./lower,upperdir=./upper,workdir=./work overlayfs ./rootfs
  mappedroot# runc run foo
