Radostin Stoyanov 288ccc4c84 Include named volumes in container migration
When migrating a container with associated volumes, the content of
these volumes should be made available on the destination machine.

This patch enables container checkpoint/restore with named volumes
by including the content of volumes in checkpoint file. On restore,
volumes associated with container are created and their content is
restored.

The --ignore-volumes option is introduced to disable this feature.

Example:

 # podman container checkpoint --export checkpoint.tar.gz <container>

The content of all volumes associated with the container are included
in `checkpoint.tar.gz`

 # podman container checkpoint --export checkpoint.tar.gz --ignore-volumes <container>

The content of volumes is not included in `checkpoint.tar.gz`. This is
useful, for example, when the checkpoint/restore is performed on the
same machine.

 # podman container restore --import checkpoint.tar.gz

The associated volumes will be created and their content will be
restored. Podman will exit with an error if volumes with the same
name already exist on the system or the content of volumes is not
included in checkpoint.tar.gz

 # podman container restore --ignore-volumes --import checkpoint.tar.gz

Volumes associated with container must already exist. Podman will not
create them or restore their content.

API Reference

The latest online documentation is automatically generated by two cooperating automation systems based on committed upstream source code. Firstly, the Cirrus-CI docs task builds pkg/api/swagger.yaml and uploads it to a public-facing location (Google Storage Bucket - an online service for storing unstructured data). Second, Read The Docs reacts to the github.com repository change, building the content for the libpod documentation site. This site includes for the API section, some javascript which consumes the uploaded swagger.yaml file directly from the Google Storage Bucket.

Since there are multiple systems and local cache is involved, it's possible that updates to documentation (especially the swagger/API docs) will lag by 10-or-so minutes. However, because the client (i.e. your web browser) is fetching content from multiple locations that do not share a common domain, accessing the API section may show a stack-trace similar to the following:

If reloading the page, or clearing your local cache does not fix the problem, it is likely caused by broken metadata needed to protect clients from cross-site-scripting style attacks. Please notify a maintainer so they may investigate how/why the swagger.yaml file's CORS-metadata is incorrect, or the file isn't accessible for some other reason.
