Instead of always returning -1 and call SYSERROR when the child returns
non-zero. Have userns_exec_1 always return the return value from the
function it's calling and let the caller do the error handling (as is
already done by its only caller).

It's been brought to my attention that the read-only mount of /proc/sys
is causing problems to archlinux users, so instead just have LXC mount
proc and sysfs normally (read-write).

This is a reissue of two previous patches along with some additional
changes for hardening the root password process based on discussions
on-list.
--
This patch modifies the lxc-fedora and lxc-centos templates for 3 things.
1) Extensively modifies root password generation, storage, and management
based on discussions on the devel list.
Root passwords are hardened and have advanced configurability.
A static password may be provided.
A password based on a template may be generated, including ${RANDOM}.
A password may be generated through mktmp using a template with X's.
Root passwords default to expired, initially.
Passwords may optionally be echoed to stdout at container creation. (no)
Passwords may optionally be stored in ${rootfs_path}/tmp_root_pass. (yes)
Users may be optionally forced to change the password at creation time. (no)
Default is to generate a pattern based password and store, no force change.
All of this may be overridden by environment variables through
conditional assignment.
2) Random static hardware addresses are generated for all configured
interfaces.
3) Add code to create sysv init style scripts to intercept shutdown and
reboot to prevent init restart and hang for CentOS and legacy Fedora
systems on shutdown, reboot, init 0, and init 6. This solves a variety
of hang conditions but only affects newly created containers. Does
not have any impact on systemd based containers.

Pretty much the only case where we do NOT want to daemonize
a container start is lxc-start. So make c->daemonize true
by default, and have lxc-start set it to false.
If there are existing API users who rely on daemonize by
default, then they will be broken by this. It seems we should
do this before beta1 if we're going to do it.

This makes the ubuntu and ubuntu-cloud templates automatically aware of apt
proxy settings when the LXC host has "squid-deb-proxy-client" installed. This
makes installations *much* faster when a suitable squid-deb-proxy is
found on the network (or installed on the host).

This adds a new --force-cache parameter which will force use of the
cache even for expired images.
An expired image is now only flushed from the cache once a new one is
successfuly downloaded (to avoid destroying the local cache when the
host doesn't have internet connectivity).
The ID of the build in cache is also tracked so that we don't
re-download something we already have (should only happen if we don't
have a new build published by the time the previous one expires).

Since previously I had found a config item that wasn't being propagated
by lxc-clone, I went through all the config items and made sure that:
a) Each item is documented in lxc.conf
b) Each item is written out by write_config
The only one that isn't is lxc.include, which by its nature only pulls
in other config item types.

Currently when a container is shut down, lxc walks the set of all
cgroup paths it created, in reverse order, and tries to remove them.
This doesn't suffice if the container has also created new cgroups.
It'd be impolite to recursively remove all the cgroup paths we created,
since this can include '/lxc' and thereunder all other containers
started since.
This patch changes container shutdown to only delete the container's own
path, but do so recursively. Note that if we fail during startup,
the container won't have created any cgroup paths so it the old
way works fine.

This adds a new template called "download". It's a fairly simple
template with a minimal set of dependency which will grab any pre-built
image available on https://images.linuxcontainers.org
Note that the serverside is still work in progress (missing SSL support).
Access is done over https by default with a warning being emitted if
fallback to http was required (may be needed for testing, when behind
proxy and with private servers). All index files and tarballs are
gpg-signed with the default pubkeyid contained in the template itself.
The main benefit of this template is to be entirely
distribution-agnostic, any template that can be integrated with the
server build infrastructure will then work on any LXC machine when using
the download template. This template is also compatible with user
namespaces and will hopefully help widden the number of distros that may
work in unprivileged LXC.
This commit also bundles a small change to the template configs to have
the ubuntu template (used by the download template) to work with
unprivileged LXC.

If /proc/self/ns does not exist, then preserve_ns was failing to
initialize the saved_ns[i] to -1. This caused attach_ns() to try
