Currently, with `runc` we have a special cmdline flag `--no-new-keyring` for `runc run` that enables/disables the creation of a new kernel keyring. The main reason we have the option is that older kernels had issues with allocating a lot of keyrings (so in order to run containers on old kernels you need to disable the creation of a new keyring). This patch adds keyring support into part of the OCI spec which allows managers to drive this behavior in a runtime-agnostic way and helps make swapping in other runtimes easier.
