System test for #9096 (truncated stdout)

This actually tests conmon, not podman; but that's the whole
point of system tests in the first place: if a problem exists,
we want to fail loudly, no matter whose fault it is.

(I can't get this to fail on my f33 laptop; OP on #9096 claims
it only fails on Ubuntu. We'll see what happens in CI).
