namespaces: by default create cgroupns on cgroups v2
change the default on cgroups v2 and create a new cgroup namespace. When a cgroup namespace is used, processes inside the namespace are only able to see cgroup paths relative to the cgroup namespace root and not have full visibility on all the cgroups present on the system. The previous behaviour is maintained on a cgroups v1 host, where a cgroup namespace is not created by default. Closes: https://github.com/containers/libpod/issues/4363 Signed-off-by: Giuseppe Scrivano <gscrivan@redhat.com>
