runc considers libcontainer to be "unstable" (not for external use),
so we try not to use it. Commit ed47d6ba76
brought back the dependency on other parts of libcontainer, but looks to
be only depending on a single utility, which in itself was borrowed from
github.com/coreos/go-systemd to not introduce CGO code in the same package.
This patch copies the version from github.com/coreos/go-systemd (adding
proper attribution, although the function is pretty trivial).
runc is in process of moving the libcontainer/user package to an external
module, which means we can remove the dependency on libcontainer entirely
in the near future. There is one more use of `libcontainer` in our vendor
tree; it looks like CDI is depending on one utility (devices.DeviceFromPath);
a943033a8b/vendor/github.com/container-orchestrated-devices/container-device-interface/pkg/cdi/container-edits_unix.go (L38)
We should remove the dependency on that utility, and add a CI check to
prevent bringing it back.
