generate systemd: clarify limitations of `--new`
`generate systemd --new` is looking at the "create command" of the container/pod which is simply the os.Args at creation time. It does not work on containers or pods created via the REST API since the create command is not set. `--new` does work on such containers and pods since there is no reliable way to reverse-map their configs to command-line arguments of podman. Fixes: #11370 Signed-off-by: Valentin Rothberg <rothberg@redhat.com>
