* Add --hostname argument and DBX_CONTAINER_HOSTNAME env var
* Update usage/distrobox-create.md and useful_tips.md
* Refining error message when hostname is too long
* init: add nvidia integration
This is a preliminary work to implement host's nVidia driver's
integration, in the guest.
The procedure is simple enough, it will try and find all nVidia related
files in the host, and bind mount them in the guest.

This utility is automatically called by create and rm, so newer
distroboxes created with this version onward will automatically be added
to you applications list.
This tool can also be called separately to create/recreate/remove an
entry.

Right now, default name for a toolbox is `fedora-toolbox-XX`, which
corresponds to the same pattern also distrobox uses for its default.
Change the default behavior to use `my-distrobox` in case no name and no
image are specified, in order to not have clashes with the other
project.

If either DBX_CONTAINER_ALWAYS_PULL or container_always_pull in config is set,
'create' will pull the latest image without prompting
(even if image already exists locally).
Use this to ensure the new toolbox is based on the most current image
instead of an old out-dated one.
* Implement pre-initialization hooks
This implements support for running commands prior to most of the
container initialization. e.g. for RHEL and derivatives you might need
to pre-enable the PowerTools/CRB and EPEL repositories.
Resolves: #220

This commit will add the `--root/-r` flag to create,enter,list,rm,stop
commands. This will enable the use of podman/docker in root mode. This
is the preferred way over `sudo distrobox`.
Update man pages and docs accordingly.
