[sosreport] add --sysroot option
Add a --sysroot=SYSROOT option to specify that the root file system to
be inspected is mounted at SYSROOT.
This allows basic support for container environments where sos is
running in a container and inspecting the containing host and its
environment ('superspection').
For this to work currently the following conditions must be met:
- sos is sufficiently privileged to read and search relevant file
system paths within SYSROOT
- sos must share the PID and network namespace of the target host
- binaries called by sos must be present and executable in the
SYSROOT inherited by sos. If PATH includes paths inside SYSROOT
appropriate values must be set for LD_LIBRARY_PATH to allow
shared executables to be linked.
