This allows us to detect containers without the need for CAP_SYS_PTRACE, which allows us to drop it from a number of daemons and from the file capabilities of systemd-detect-virt. Also, don't consider chroot a container technology anymore. After all, we don't consider file system namespaces container technology anymore, and hence chroot() should be considered a container even less. ---
