Jan Kaluza 7612af4c0e Rewrite the Quadlet documentation
This commit does the following:

- Splits the podman-systemd.unit.5.md into multiple files - one for each quadlet file type.
- Adds the podman-quadlet-basic-usage.7.md for quadlet examples.
- Majority of the text in the new files is copied from the podman-systemd.unit.5.md
- Adds support for very simple condditional in the markdown_preprocess.
- Uses new logic in markdown_preprocess in options/*.md to use a single .md file for both
  podman subcommands man-pages and quadlet man-pages. This deduplicates the Quadlet man-pages a lot.
- Adds new `@@option quadlet:source.md`` preprocess command to import such .md files from options directory.

Override the default ENTRYPOINT from the image.

The ENTRYPOINT of an image is similar to a COMMAND because it specifies what executable to run when the container starts, but it is (purposely) more difficult to override. The ENTRYPOINT gives a container its default nature or behavior. When the ENTRYPOINT is set, the container runs as if it were that binary, complete with default options. More options can be passed in via the COMMAND. But, if a user wants to run something else inside the container, the << 'Entrypoint=' if is_quadlet else '--entrypoint=' >> option allows a new ENTRYPOINT to be specified.

Specify multi option commands in the form of a JSON string.
