2024-01-27examples/chroottar.py: allow opening non-zstd tarsHelmut Grohne
When decompression fails, we should raise a tarfile.ReadError rather than a zstandard.ZstdError. Otherwise, tarfile gives up guessing.

* Drop supplementary groups. Very likely, those are not mapped inside and they cannot cause much good. * Sane permission for the root directory. Otherwise no non-root user can access any files.

2024-01-25examples/chroottar.py: work when TMPDIR is privateHelmut Grohne
When TMPDIR has restrictive permissions, the namespace may be unable to access the leading components. Thus we put the supervisor process handling the cleanup into a different namespace that has all the ids plus the current uid mapped. It'll then be able to perform the cleanup (and the initial chown).

2024-01-25linuxnamespaces.run_in_fork: use os._exit instead of sys.exitHelmut Grohne
When using sys.exit, we actually raise a SystemExit exception and as a consequence exit all context managers. If a particular context manager pertains only the process at hand, we don't really care, because our process is supposed to vanish. If a context manager changes external state such as tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile, this is very bad and unexpected. We need to ensure that such cleanup is not performed. This also simplifies the test suite that had to emulate this behaviour already as pytest uses a context manager.
