Update the description of --device in `buildah build` to note that the

not to imply that they end up in the finished image.

Like podman allow buildah and therefore podman build to use the network
mode pasta. The pasta integration is very simple and we do not even
need a teardown handler for that as pasta will exit on its own when the
netns path is removed.
However right now this is broken, pasta will fail to open
/proc/$pid/ns/net. I send a patch[1] to fix this upstream in pasta.
I assume this will land quickly so I like to get this in now just so we
have this included in podman v4.6. Thus the test is skipped for now.

This uses the same code as podman for slirp4netns, this means
- ipv6 is enabled by default
- slirp4netns options are read from contianers.conf
- slirp4netns options can now be set on the cli. This required some
small rework on where we parse the network string.
Lastly I updated the --network docs, to document the new slirp4netns
mode. That included fixing up buildah-from and buildah-run pages which
were incomplete in that regard. Now we show the same for all options.

We handle --label command line arguments by appending LABEL instructions
to the Dockerfile contents before we parse it. Previously, we were
appending a separate line for each label-value pair. Consolidate them
for the sake of tools that arbitrarily limit the length of histories
that they're willing to accept in images (boo!).
Add a similar implementation for --env command line arguments.
Previously, we'd set them in the initial configuration for each stage
and also set them at commit-time, and that potentially overrode any
values that were explicitly in the stage itself, and which would have
affected RUN instructions. Remove the set-at-commit-time logic so that
the history reflects what ends up in the image.

`build` or `bud` now supports a new flag `--cache-ttl` which accepts
duration and allows end users to ignore cache images which are not under

Following flag is useful for setups/platforms which heavily relies on

after specified duration to make sure specific `RUN` steps are always
updated. Example `RUN dnf update` or `RUN dnf install`

Following commit
* Initiates `cacheKey` or `layerKey` for intermediate images generated
for layers.
* Allows end users to upload cached layers with `cacheKey` to remote
sources using `--cache-to`. `--cache-to` is a optional flag to be used
with `buildah build` which publishes cached layers to remote sources.
* Allows end users to use cached layers from `remote` sources with
`--cache-from`. `--cache-from` is a optional flag to be used with
`buildah build` and it pulls cached layers from remote sources in a step
by step manner only if is a valid cache hit.
Example
* Populate cache source or use cached layers if already present
```bash
buildah build -t test --layers --cache-to registry/myrepo/cache --cache-from registry/myrepo/cache .
```
Future:
* `cacheKey` or `layerKey` model is only being used when working with
remote sources however local cache lookup can be also optimized if its
is altered to use `cacheKey` model instead of iterating through all the
images in local storage. As discussed here

Following PR adds support for OCI hooks attached to each of ephemeral
build contains which are created by `RUN` step invoked during `buildah

Following PR also adds `--hooks-dir` flag to `buildah build` option
which allows end-users to specify one or more configuration directories
for OCI-hooks.
Note: Following PR migrates `pkg/hooks` from `podman` to `buildah` so
buildah could implement this feature and once merged `podman` can start
using `buildah/pkg/hooks`.
For usage see man-page and example test-case.

Buildah now supports `--userns=auto` which can automatically pick an empty range and create an user namespace for the container.
The `--userns=auto` flag, requires that the user name containers and a range of subordinate user ids that the build container is allowed to use be specified in the /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid files.
Example: `containers:2147483647:2147483648`.
Buildah allocates unique ranges of UIDs and GIDs from the containers subordinate user ids. The size of the ranges is based on the number of UIDs required in the image. The number of UIDs and GIDs can be overridden with the size option.
Valid auto options:
* gidmapping=CONTAINER_GID:HOST_GID:SIZE: to force a GID mapping to be present in the user namespace.
* size=SIZE: to specify an explicit size for the automatic user namespace. e.g. --userns=auto:size=8192. If size is not specified, auto will estimate a size for the user namespace.
* uidmapping=CONTAINER_UID:HOST_UID:SIZE: to force a UID mapping to be present in the user namespace.

* Certain build tools don't honor setting build history in image spec
however buildah does not allow processing images without build history
since setting build history is still optional as per `OCI` image-spec
( https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/main/config.md#properties)
so buildah must support such use-cases.

As builds got more complicated, the ability to only access files from one location became quite limiting. With `multi-stage` builds where you can `copy` files from other parts of the Containerfile by adding the `--from` flag and pointing it to the name of another Containerfile stage or a remote image.
The new named build context feature is an extension of this pattern. You can now define additional build contexts when running the build command, give them a name, and then access them inside a Dockerfile the same way you previously did with build stages.
Additional build contexts can be defined with a new `--build-context [name]=[value]` flag. The key component defines the name for your build context and the value can be:
```console
Local directory – e.g. --build-context project2=../path/to/project2/src
HTTP URL to a tarball – e.g. --build-context src=https://example.org/releases/src.tar
Container image – Define with a docker-image:// prefix, e.g. --build-context alpine=docker-image://alpine:3.15, ( also supports docker://, container-image:// )
```
On the Containerfile side, you can reference the build context on all commands that accept the “from” parameter. Here’s how that might look:
```Dockerfile
FROM [name]
COPY --from=[name] ...
RUN --mount=from=[name] …
```
The value of [name] is matched with the following priority order:
* Named build context defined with `--build-context [name]=..`
* Stage defined with `AS [name]` inside Dockerfile
* Remote image `[name]` in a container registry
Added Features
* Pinning images for `FROM` and `COPY`
* Specifying multiple buildcontexts from different projects
and using them with `--from` in `ADD` and `COPY` directive
* Override a Remote Dependency with a Local One.
* Using additional context from external `Tar`
