linux-container: Make the guest UID and GID a parameter.
* gnu/build/linux-container.scm (initialize-user-namespace): Add #:guest-uid and #:guest-gid parameters and honor them. (run-container): Likewise. (call-with-container): Likewise. * tests/containers.scm ("call-with-container, user namespace, guest UID/GID"): New test.
