Add garbage collection as a background process and policy
configuration for configuring when to run garbage collection.
By default garbage collection will run when deletion occurs
and no more than 20ms out of every second.

As a minimum, we would like to maintain generic garbage collection of
containerd resources. This includes images, bundles, containers and
arbitrary content.
The included implementation is just a textbook toy that we can use to
inform the requirements of gc. It implements a simple, stack-based
tricolor algorithm. Nothing special.
Mostly, this is to ensure we think about garbage collection from the
start, rather than as an afterthought or follow on feature.
