Add a Meson-based build system for ease of distribution

Drop the "fedora" prefix and rename the project as just "toolbox" The "fedora" prefix was used because this project was specifically incubated to make it easier to hack on Fedora Silverblue. That and the mix of upstream technologies (ie., Buildah and Podman) made it uniquely "Fedora". However, over time it has gotten clear that other groups, currently Fedora downstreams like RHEL, are interested in it too. It won't be surprising if in future it transcends the Fedora universe altogether. Moreover, this project was inspired by coreos/toolbox [1]. There are good reasons and enough interest to have a unified toolbox project that addresses the needs of both Fedora CoreOS and Silverblue. Therefore, it is best to drop the "fedora" prefix and call the whole thing just "toolbox". No extra effort was made to retain compatibility with the older name due to the project's young age. Its userbase is limited to the earliest of early adopters, and the benefits of a clean break outweigh the loss of compatibility. The OCI images and the toolbox container still retain the "fedora" prefix to disambiguate them from their counterparts from other operating systems.

build: Don't assume that libc.so is always in /usr/lib or /usr/lib64 The location for public shared libraries can change from one operating system distribution to another. eg., while Fedora uses /usr/lib and /usr/lib64, depending on the hardware architecture, Debian uses paths like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu. Therefore, it's best not to assume anything and ask the toolchain. https://github.com/containers/toolbox/pull/923

build: Drop the use of patchelf(1) Some downstream distributors like RHEL don't have patchelf(1). Relying on patchelf(1) during the build will make it difficult for such downstreams to distribute Toolbox. Fortunately, the path of the dynamic linker (ie., PT_INTERP) is hardcoded in the ABI specification of each architecture [1]. This means that Toolbox's build system can keep it's own architecture to dynamic linker mapping, and specify it during the build through the GNU ld linker's --dynamic-linker flag, as opposed to using a tool like patchelf(1) to change the path of the dynamic linker in the built binary to the one inside /run/host. Currently, the list of architectures covers the ones that Fedora builds for. [1] https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/ABIList https://github.com/containers/toolbox/pull/942

build: Add an option for the migration path for coreos/toolbox users Commit 6c86cabbe5da6e542b changed the command line interface to behave a lot similar to that of github.com/coreos/toolbox, which makes things easier for those switching over from it. However, it makes things confusing for the vast majority of users who have never used coreos/toolbox. The Toolbox CLI aims to be friendly to new users by being self-documenting and offering a smooth onboarding experience. It's jarring to new users when 'toolbox', without any commands specified, suggests that it needs to perform a big download. It's difficult to document two different sets of CLIs, and if the manuals don't mention the second behaviour, then it just leaves the users even more confused. Hence, it will be good to keep the migration path for coreos/toolbox behind a build-time option, so that only those OS distributors who truly need it may enable it without impacting others. Fortunately, coreos/toolbox doesn't have any manuals, which means that there's no need to conditionalize the documentation. This commit merely adds the build-time option. Subsequent commits will use this to actually conditionalize the code. https://github.com/containers/toolbox/pull/951

Give access to removable devices and other temporary mounts Currently, when udisks is configured to use /run/media instead of /media, on most operating systems, the /run/media directory is created by udisks itself when the first mount is handled [1]. This causes problems when creating the toolbox container, if nothing has been mounted after the current boot, because a missing directory cannot be bind mounted. Fedora Silverblue is a significant exception to the above, where rpm-ostree takes care of creating /run/media with systemd-tmpfiles [2] during boot. The correct long-term solution is to get udisks to create /run/media during boot with systemd-tmpfiles by installing a snippet in tmpfiles.d [3, 4]. Until that happens, and is widely deployed, the toolbox needs to provide the snippet itself to make things work on the majority of operating systems. Note that, in case udisks is configured to use /media instead of /run/media, then this will create an unused /run/media directory. This is probably fine because /run/media is the default setting for udisks. Moreover, an unused directory is way better than not being able to access mount points from a toolbox container or having 'podman create' fail due to a missing directory.

build: Hook up the Go code with Meson Meson doesn't support Go [1], so this is implemented by a custom target that invokes 'go build' to generate the binary. Unfortunately, when using Go modules, 'go build' insists on being invoked in the same source directory where the go.mod file lives, while Meson insists on using a build directory separate from the corresponding source directory. This is addressed by using a build script that goes into the source directory and then invokes 'go build'. Currently, the Go code is only built when a Go implementation is found, and even then, it's not installed. Non-technical end-users are supposed to continue using the POSIX shell implementation until the Go version is blessed as stable.
