configuration from being saved if the backing store does not need
to be created.

Use the same code with and without a rootfs to check if mounting
/proc is necessary before doing so. If mounting it is unsuccessful
and there is no rootfs, continue as before.

A container without a rootfs is useful for running a collection of
processes in separate namespaces (to provide separate networking as
an example), while sharing the host filesystem (except for specific
paths that are re-mounted as needed). For multiple processes to run
automatically when such a container is started, it can be launched
using lxc-start, and a separate instance of systemd can manage just
the processes inside the container. (This assumes that the path to
the systemd unit files is re-mounted and only contains the services
that should run inside the container.) For this use case, autodev
should be permitted for a container that does not have a rootfs.

Instead of require static mtu setting in config we simply clone the
existing MTU setting of the bridge interface.
This fixes issue when bridge interface has bigger MTU (like 9000 for
jumbo frame support) than the default 1500. When veth interface is
created it has by default MTU set to 1500 and when this is added to the
bridge, the kernel wee reduce the MTU for the bridge to 1500. We solve
this by cloning the MTU value from bridge interface.
This simplifies managing containers with bridge interface who supports
jumbo frames (mtu 9000) and makes it easier to move containers between
hosts with different MTU settings.

If we currently create clone-snapshots via lxc-clone only the plain total
number of the containers it serves as a base-container is written to the file
"lxc-snapshots". This commit modifies mod_rdep() so it will store the paths and
names to the containers that are clone-snapshots (similar to the "lxc_rdepends"
file for the clones). **Users which still have containers that have a non-empty
(with a number > 0 as an entry) "lxc-snapshots" file in the old format are not
affected by this change. It will be used until all old clones have been
deleted!** For all others, the "lxc_snapshots" file placed under the original
container now looks like this:
/var/lib/lxc
bb
/var/lib/lxc
cc
/opt
dd
This is an example of a container that provides the base for three
clone-snapshots bb, cc, and dd. Where bb and cc both are placed in the usual
path for privileged containers and dd is placed in a custom path.
- Add additional argument to function that takes in the clone-snapshotted
lxc_container.
- Have mod_rdep() write the path and name of the clone-snapshotted container the
file lxc_snapshots of the original container.
- If a clone-snapshot gets deleted the corresponding line in the file
lxc_snapshot of the original container will be deleted and the file updated
via mmap() + memmove() + munmap().
- Adapt has_fs_snapshots().
- **If an lxc-snapshot file in the old format is found we'll keep using it.**

- Passing the LXC_CLONE_KEEPNAME flag to do_lxcapi_clone() was not respected and
let to unexpected behaviour for e.g. lxc-clone. We wrap
clear_unexp_config_line() and set_config_item_line() in an appropriate
if-condition.

- This enables the user to destroy a container with all its snapshots without
having to use lxc-snapshot first to destroy all snapshots. (The enum values
DESTROY and SNAP from the previous commit are reused here again.)
- Some unification regarding the usage of exit() and return has been done.

- lxc_snapshot.c lacked necessary members in the associated lxc_arguments struct
in arguments.h. This commit extends the lxc_arguments struct to include
several parameters used by lxc-snapshot which allows a rewrite that is more
consistent with the rest of the lxc-* executables.
- All tests have been moved beyond the call to lxc_log_init() to allow for the
messages to be printed or saved.
- Some small changes to the my_args struct. (The enum task is set to SNAP (for
snapshot) per default and variables illustrating the usage of the command line
flags are written in all caps.)
- arguments.h has been extended to accommodate a future rewrite of lxc-clone
- Traditional behaviour of the executable has been retained in this commit.

So remove the description for the case of using cgmanager.
