System tests: resolve hang in rawhide rootless
Fedora CI tests are failing on rawhide under kernel 5.3.0-0.rc1.git3.1.fc31 (rhbz#1736758). But there's another insidious failure, a 4-hour hang in the rootless tests on the same CI system. The culprit line is in the podman build test, but it's actually BATS itself that hangs, not the build command -- which suggests that it's the usual FD 3 problem (see BATS README). It would seem that podman is forking a process that inherits fd 3 but that process is not getting cleaned up when podman crashes upon encountering the kernel bug. Today it's podman build, tomorrow it might be something else. Let's just run all podman invocations in run_podman with a non-bats FD 3. Signed-off-by: Ed Santiago <santiago@redhat.com>
