rootless: optional support for lxc-user-nic SUID binary

lxc-user-nic can eliminate slirp overhead but needs /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet to be configured for the current user.

To use lxc-user-nic, $DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_NET=lxc-user-nic also needs to be set.

This commit also bumps up RootlessKit from v0.3.0 to v0.4.0:

+Optionally, you can use `lxc-user-nic` instead for the best performance.
