A while ago, 'podman build' stopped supporting COPY with relative
symbolic links [1]. Therefore, these image definitions can't be used
without first temporarily removing the symbolic links, which is
annoying.
The downside is that the copies of README.md now has to be separately
updated, which isn't that big of a hassle compared to the problem that
it fixes.

The nss-mdns plugin for the GNU Name Service Switch (or NSS)
functionality of the GNU C Library is necessary to resolve the .local
mDNS domain. The plugin talks to the Avahi daemon running on the host
to resolve the names.

It's necessary to propagate the XAUTHORITY environment variable from
the host when an X11 client is run as 'sudo <some-client>'. If an X11
client is started inside a 'su -' session, then xauth(1) needs to be
present so that pam_xauth.so can add a new XAUTHORITY environment
variable to the 'su -' session.

The gvfs-client package is necessary for GIO-based processes inside
toolbox containers to use the GVfs backend and volume monitor daemons,
and it comes preinstalled on Fedora Silverblue and Workstation.
Only the images for currently maintained Fedoras (ie., 31, 32 and 33)
were updated.

The older com.github.debarshiray.toolbox label is still used in most
places as an alias for the new name for the sake of simplicity and
compatibility; except in 'create', where the new label is explicitly
specified in addition to the older one to help popularize it via newly
created toolbox containers.
The older com.github.debarshiray.toolbox label should eventually be
dropped, but before that, the even older use of com.redhat.component
for tagging needs to be phased out. The com.github.debarshiray.toolbox
label was introduced in commit 0ab6eb7401, as part of Toolbox
0.0.8, right before the release of Fedora 30 [1]. Therefore,
com.redhat.component needs to stay at least until Fedora 29 is
supported.
