When application is not cgroups-aware, it can spawn excessive threads
which often defaults to CPU number.
Introduce a opt-in flag that will set CPU number accordingly to CPU
quota (if available).
Fixes#1391
Right now, we send each tcp packet separately, we call one system
call per-packet. This patch allows to generate multiple tcp packets
and send them by sendmmsg.
The arguable part of this CL is a way how to handle multiple headers.
This CL adds the next field to the Prepandable buffer.

Linux kernel before 4.19 doesn't implement a feature that updates
open FD after a file is open for write (and is copied to the upper
layer). Already open FD will continue to read the old file content
until they are reopened. This is especially problematic for gVisor
because it caches open files.
Flag was added to force readonly files to be reopenned when the
same file is open for write. This is only needed if using kernels
prior to 4.19.
Closes#1006
It's difficult to really test this because we never run on tests
on older kernels. I'm adding a test in GKE which uses kernels
with the overlayfs problem for 1.14 and lower.

Filter installation has been streamlined and functions renamed.
Documentation has been fixed to be standards compliant, and missing
documentation added. gofmt has also been applied to modified files.
'--rootless' flag lets a non-root user execute 'runsc do'.
The drawback is that the sandbox and gofer processes will
run as root inside a user namespace that is mapped to the
caller's user, intead of nobody. And network is defaulted
to '--network=host' inside the root network namespace. On
the bright side, it's very convenient for testing:
runsc --rootless do ls
runsc --rootless do curl www.google.com

This allows an fdbased endpoint to have multiple underlying fd's from which
packets can be read and dispatched/written to.
This should allow for higher throughput as well as better scalability of the
network stack as number of connections increases.

It's hard to resolve symlinks inside the sandbox because rootfs and mounts
may be read-only, forcing us to create mount points inside lower layer of an
overlay, **before** the volumes are mounted.
Since the destination must already be resolved outside the sandbox when creating
mounts, take this opportunity to rewrite the spec with paths resolved.
"runsc boot" will use the "resolved" spec to load mounts. In addition, symlink
traversals were disabled while mounting containers inside the sandbox.
It haven't been able to write a good test for it. So I'm relying on manual tests
for now.

This is a breaking change if you're using --debug-log-dir.
The fix is to replace it with --debug-log and add a '/' at

--debug-log-dir=/tmp/runsc ==> --debug-log=/tmp/runsc/

We construct a dir with the executable bind-mounted at /exe, and proc mounted
at /proc. Runsc now executes the sandbox process inside this chroot, thus
limiting access to the host filesystem. The mounts and chroot dir are removed
when the sandbox is destroyed.
Because this requires bind-mounts, we can only do the chroot if we have
CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

When starting a sandbox without direct file or network access, we create an
empty user namespace and run the sandbox in there. However, the root user in
that namespace is still mapped to the root user in the parent namespace.
This CL maps the "nobody" user from the parent namespace into the child
namespace, and runs the sandbox process as user "nobody" inside the new
namespace.

This is a prereq for running the sandbox process as user "nobody", when it may
not have permissions to open these files.
Instead, we must open then before starting the sandbox process, and pass them
by FD.
The specutils.ReadSpecFromFile method was fixed to always seek to the beginning
of the file before reading. This allows Files from the same FD to be read
multiple times, as we do in the boot command when the apply-caps flag is set.
Tested with --network=host.

Previously, gofer filesystems were configured with the default "fscache"
policy, which caches filesystem metadata and contents aggressively. While this
setting is best for performance, it means that changes from inside the sandbox
may not be immediately propagated outside the sandbox, and vice-versa.
This CL changes volumes and the root fs configuration to use a new
"remote-revalidate" cache policy which tries to retain as much caching as
possible while still making fs changes visible across the sandbox boundary.
This cache policy is enabled by default for the root filesystem. The default
value for the "--file-access" flag is still "proxy", but the behavior is
changed to use the new cache policy.
A new value for the "--file-access" flag is added, called "proxy-exclusive",
which turns on the previous aggressive caching behavior. As the name implies,
this flag should be used when the sandbox has "exclusive" access to the
filesystem.
All volume mounts are configured to use the new cache policy, since it is
safest and most likely to be correct. There is not currently a way to change
this behavior, but it's possible to add such a mechanism in the future. The
configurability is a smaller issue for volumes, since most of the expensive
application fs operations (walking + stating files) will likely served by the
root fs.

Unit tests call runsc directly now, so all command line arguments
are valid. On the other hand, enabling debug in the test binary
doesn't affect runsc. It needs to be set in the config.

This is a necessary prerequisite for supporting multiple containers in a single
sandbox.
All the commands (in cmd package) now call operations on Containers (container
package). When a Container first starts, it will create a Sandbox with the same
ID.
The Sandbox class is now simpler, as it only knows how to create boot/gofer
processes, and how to forward commands into the running boot process.
There are TODOs sprinkled around for additional support for multiple
containers. Most notably, we need to detect when a container is intended to run
in an existing sandbox (by reading the metadata), and then have some way to
signal to the sandbox to start a new container. Other urpc calls into the
sandbox need to pass the container ID, so the sandbox can run the operation on
the given container. These are only half-plummed through right now.
