We now gracefully fallback to copying when/if systemplate
is readonly.
The bulk of the change is to support proper cleanup in
both cases.
First, we had to move as much of the jail bootstrapping
into the loolwsd-systemplate-setup script, so systemplate
will be as complete as possible before it is locked down.
Next, we needed to update the jail with graceful fallback
to linking/copying upon failure. For that, the jail setup
logic in Kit.cpp has been reworked to support not just
update failures, but also more comprehensive mounting
failures as well.
Finally, jail cleanup now is seamless. To support proper
cleanup when we had mounting enabled but had to fallback,
we mark jails that aren't mounted so we can 'rm -rf' the
contents safely and without fear or causing undue damage
(as unlikely as that is, technically we wouldn't want to
rm systemplate files, if mounting read-only had failed).
There are a few minor refactorings of JailUtil to make
it cleaner and more robust.

For various reasons, systemplate may be read-only
or under a different owner and therefore impossible
to update the dynamic files in it.
To support such a scenario, we first link the
eight dynamic files in /etc when creating systemplate.
If this fails, we copy the files.
When creating jails, we always check that all the
dynamic files are up-to-date. If they are, nothing
further is necessary and we bind-mount, if enabled
and possible.
However, if the dynamic files are not up-to-date,
we disable bind-mounting and force linking
the files in the jails. Failing that, we copy them,
which is not ideal, but allows us to ensure the
dynamic files are up-to-date as we copy them too.
Ideally, the dynamic files in question would be
hard-link (or at least soft-linked) in systemplate
at creation. From then on we would bind-mount
the jails and everything would work perfectly and
no files would need updating. This patch is fallback
for when this scheme fails, which should be exceedingly
rare anyway, but which still ensures correct operation.

loolmount now works and supports mounting and
unmounting, plus numerous improvements,
refactoring, logging, etc.. When enabled,
binding improves the jail setup time by anywhere
from 2x to orders of magnitude (in docker, f.e.).
A new config entry mount_jail_tree controls
whether mounting is used or the old method of
linking/copying of jail contents. It is set to
true by default and falls back to linking/copying.
A test mount is done when the setting is enabled,
and if mounting fails, it's disabled to avoid noise.
Temporarily disabled for unit-tests until we can
cleanup lingering mounts after Jenkins aborts our
build job. In a future patch we will have mount/jail
cleanup as part of make.
The network/system files in /etc that need frequent
refreshing are now updated in systemplate to make
their most recent version available in the jails.
These files can change during the course of loolwsd
lifetime, and are unlikely to be updated in
systemplate after installation at all. We link to
them in the systemplate/etc directory, and if that
fails, we copy them before forking each kit
instance to have the latest.
This reworks the approach used to bind-mount the
jails and the templates such that the total is
now down to only three mounts: systemplate, lo, tmp.
As now systemplate and lotemplate are shared, they
must be mounted as readonly, this means that user/
must now be moved into tmp/user/ which is writable.
The mount-points must be recursive, because we mount
lo/ within the mount-point of systemplate (which is
the root of the jail). But because we (re)bind
recursively, and because both systemplate and
lotemplate are mounted for each jails, we need to
make them unbindable, so they wouldn't multiply the
mount-points for each jails (an explosive growth!)
Contrarywise, we don't want the mount-points to
be shared, because we don't expect to add/remove
mounts after a jail is created.
The random temp directory is now created and set
correctly, plus many logging and other improvements.
