Jan Rodák 4d3c6311a5 Fix unless-stopped restart policy to match Docker behavior

- Update documentation: Differentiate `unless-stopped` from `always` - containers stopped by the user before a reboot will not restart.
- Add `should-start-on-boot` filter: Identify containers that require a restart after a system reboot.
- Update command documentation: Add `restart-policy` and `label!` filters to the documentation for container commands (rm, ps, start, stop, pause, unpause, restart).
- Add `restart-policy` and `shoud-start-on-boot` to completions.
- Update service: Update `podman-restart.service` to use the `needs-restart=true` filter.
- Preserve state: Preserve the `StoppedByUser` state across reboots.
- Update API: Add a `ShouldStartOnBoot()` method to the Container API.
- Update documentation: Add descriptions for the `should-start-on-boot` filter.

Setting up Podman service for systemd socket activation

system-wide (podman service run as root)

copy the podman.service and podman.socket files into /etc/systemd/system
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable podman.socket
systemctl start podman.socket
systemctl status podman.socket podman.service

Assuming the status messages show no errors, the libpod service is ready to respond to the APIv2 on the unix domain socket /run/podman/podman.sock

podman.service

You can refer to this example for a sample podman.service file.

Note: replace @@PODMAN@@ with path to podman binary, such as /usr/bin/podman

podman.socket

You can refer to this example for a sample podman.socket file.

user (podman service run as given user aka "rootless")

mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
copy the podman.service and podman.socket files into ~/.config/systemd/user
systemctl --user enable podman.socket
systemctl --user start podman.socket
systemctl --user status podman.socket podman.service

Assuming the status messages show no errors, the libpod service is ready to respond to the APIv2 on the unix domain socket /run/user/$(id -u)/podman/podman.sock
