restore: added --ignore-static-ip option
If a container is restored multiple times from an exported checkpoint with the help of '--import --name', the restore will fail if during 'podman run' a static container IP was set with '--ip'. The user can tell the restore process to ignore the static IP with '--ignore-static-ip'. Signed-off-by: Adrian Reber <areber@redhat.com>

+**--ignore-static-ip**
+
+If the container was started with **--ip** the restored container also tries to use that
+IP address and restore fails if that IP address is already in use. This can happen, if
+a container is restored multiple times from an exported checkpoint with **--name, -n**.
+
+Using **--ignore-static-ip** tells Podman to ignore the IP address if it was configured
+with **--ip** during container creation.
