Envbuilder fails if it runs using the sysbox container runtime. This is unfortunate because sysbox is neccessary to run k3s or docker within a workspace.

The issue is described already in the kaniko project: GoogleContainerTools/kaniko#2144 and the sysbox project: nestybox/sysbox#564

There are also workarounds proposed (like unmounting the offending mountpoint or mounting something empty over it). As envbuilder uses kaniko internally, but the image lacks the userland for the workarounds I think, it should also implement the workaround for convenience.

Another option is to attach an empty volume from the outside to the container, but this is difficult to implement in a terraform manifest as the target of the mountpoint is dependend on the running kernel of the host - and the provisioner does not have this information available.

fix: allow envbuilder on sysbox container runtime
6b2ebd7 
This fixes coder#50 by temporary bind-mounting all readonly mounts within
the MagicDir to keep them out of the way for kaniko.

After kaniko finished it's build, the original mountpoints are restored
at their original location.
