Subject: [PATCH] libpod: Add pasta networking mode
Conceptually equivalent to networking by means of slirp4netns(1),
with a few practical differences:
- pasta(1) forks to background once networking is configured in the
namespace and quits on its own once the namespace is deleted:
file descriptor synchronisation and PID tracking are not needed
- port forwarding is configured via command line options at start-up,
instead of an API socket: this is taken care of right away as we're
about to start pasta
- there's no need for further selection of port forwarding modes:
pasta behaves similarly to containers-rootlessport for local binds
(splice() instead of read()/write() pairs, without L2-L4
translation), and keeps the original source address for non-local
connections like slirp4netns does
- IPv6 is not an experimental feature, and enabled by default. IPv6
port forwarding is supported
- by default, addresses and routes are copied from the host, that is,
container users will see the same IP address and routes as if they
were in the init namespace context. The interface name is also
sourced from the host upstream interface with the first default
route in the routing table. This is also configurable as documented
- by default, the host is reachable using the gateway address from
the container, unless the --no-map-gw option is passed
- sandboxing and seccomp(2) policies cannot be disabled
See https://passt.top for more details about pasta.

+Currently either slirp4netns or pasta are required to be installed to create a network device, otherwise rootless containers need to run in the network namespace of the host.
In certain environments like HPC (High Performance Computing), users cannot take advantage of the additional UIDs and GIDs from the /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid systems. However, in this environment, rootless Podman can operate with a single UID. To make this work, set the `ignore_chown_errors` option in the /etc/containers/storage.conf or in ~/.config/containers/storage.conf files. This option tells Podman when pulling an image to ignore chown errors when attempting to change a file in a container image to match the non-root UID in the image. This means all files get saved as the user's UID. Note this could cause issues when running the container.
