[bug#70933] [PATCH] system: Do not add "--disable-chroot" to containers.

[Andreas Enge]

The rationale for these lines is that they enable non-privileged docker
containers. But I would like to create a privileged container with
chroot (in an openshift environment, where I suppose this environment
does additional encapsulation to enforce security), which these lines
prevent.

Users can still add the option. Alternatively, we could add an additional
field "chroot? (default: #t)" to guix-configuration.

* gnu/system/linux-container.scm (containerized-operating-system): Do not
add "--disable-chroot".
