Commit 69fe23ff added checking for the older docbook2man back into
configure, but this breaks building the docs on at least Oracle Linux and
Fedora when docbook2X is not installed as docbook2man will be found but the
docs don't actually build with that tool.
This change makes it so the docs can be built with either the older
docbook2man or the newer 2X tools by using configure to set the dtd
string to an appropriate value depending on use of docbook2man or
db2x_docbook2man.
Also fixed a small error in lxc-destroy.sgml.in that was noticed
by the old tools.

This is based on patch from Papp Tamas (thanks). It also does some
reorganizing of lxc-create to commonize some of the backingstore handling.
I played with it using:
sudo lvcreate -L 100G -n zfs vg0
sudo zpool create lxc /dev/vg0/zfs
sudo lxc-create -B zfs --zfsroot lxc -t ubuntu -n dir2
or you could
qemu-img create zfs.img 100G
sudo qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 zfs.img
sudo zpool create lxc /dev/nbd0
sudo lxc-create -B zfs --zfsroot lxc -t ubuntu -n dir2
I'll write the bdev.c handler and hook up lxc-clone next.
This also fixses a bug in the sed expression to extract the rootfs from
container config, which prepended an extra '/' to the rootdev. (That
caused the zfs list entry not to match at destroy)

If lxc_wait is called before the container has started the socket will not

Because of an assertion in glibc's fork() wrapper that parent pid and
pid of child should never be the same, one should avoid fork() after
attaching to a PID namespace, since the pid inside the namespace may
coincide with the pid of the parent outside the namespace, thus hitting
the aforementioned assertion.
This patch just changes the code in the most simple manner to use
clone() instead of fork(). Since clone() requires a function to be
called instead of returning 0, we move the code of the child into a
function child_main.

This adds docbook2man as an alternative name for the docbook compiler.
As that name was used on Debian based systems for an older version of the tool,
this change also adds a check so that docbook2man is never used on Debian based
systems.

Introduce a new HTTP_PROXY variable in /etc/default/lxc. If unset or
set to none, then behavior continues as before. If set to 'apt', then
any http::proxy set in apt.conf will be used as http_proxy for
debootstrap, and specified in the container's
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/70proxy. If set to something else, then the
value of HTTP_PROXY will be used as http_proxy for debootstrap and
specified in the container's 70proxy.

When using -P (lxcpath), the parameter path needs to be forwarded
to the various commands being run but not used by the nested lxc-ls
as it's relatively unlikely that both the host and the nested containers
use a custom path.
This isn't ideal but short of having a way to provide the container path
for every single of the nesting (with potential unlimited depth), it's
the best we can do.

If the process in the new namespace dies very early
we have currently no chance to detect this.
The parent process will just die due to SIGPIPE
if it write to the fd used for synchronisation and
nobody will notice the real cause of the problem.
Install a SIGCHLD handler to detect the death.
Later when the child does execve() to the init within
the new namespace the handler will be disabled automatically.

This patch supports the scenario where a user wants to install a
busybox container on a busybox host.
When running the template, in order to change the root password,
the template needs to do the chroot. On busybox-powered hosts, chroot
is not part of the coreutils package - it's part of busybox. And the
busybox implementation or chroot only works if it has /lib in the new
root populated with the right binaries (or at least that's the
solution I found to make it work).
The temporarily bind-mounts /lib in the NEWROOT, chroots there,
changes the password, goes back and unmounts. This set of operations
is contained in a new MOUNT namespace, using the lxc-unshare call.
