Ian Wienand 85e20d9852 containerfile: handle errors better
Refactor things to use explicit names, and put in a trap to cleanup
after any errors.

Currently, if the build/run/export steps fail, it leaves behind images
which eventually clog things to the point podman won't run any more
(see also https://github.com/containers/podman/pull/12233 about errors
seen due to this)

=============
containerfile
=============

Base element for creating images from container files (aka
Dockerfiles).

Usually this element will be called via a more specific distro element
which provides an environment for building a full image.  This element
will search active elements for a container file located in
`containerfiles/${DIB_RELEASE}`.

Alternatively, to use this element directly supply the path to a
container file in the environment variable
`DIB_CONTAINERFILE_DOCKERFILE`.

Set ``DIB_CONTAINERFILE_PODMAN_ROOT`` to ``1`` to run `podman` as
`root`.
