Move all bind-mounts in the container inside the namespace

This moves the bind mounts like /.dockerinit, /etc/hostname, volumes,
etc into the container namespace, by setting them up using lxc.

This is useful to avoid littering the global namespace with a lot of
mounts that are internal to each container and are not generally
needed on the outside. In particular, it seems that having a lot of
mounts is problematic wrt scaling to a lot of containers on systems
where the root filesystem is mounted --rshared.

Note that the "private" option is only supported by the native driver, as
lxc doesn't support setting this. This is not a huge problem, but it does
mean that some mounts are unnecessarily shared inside the container if you're
using the lxc driver.
