This pulls in sylabs pr

The original pr description was:

It is common for users to run docker containers that expect more isolation than is default in Singularity, and that can create files on startup. This is a simple short-hand to enable --contain-all, --no-init, --no-umask, --writable-tmpfs. These options give the best chance of an OCI/Docker container working as expected but without requiring the user/uts/net namespaces that we can't rely on in all installations / configurations of Singularity.

@DrDaveD DrDaveD added this to the 3.9.0 milestone Oct 7, 2021
It is common for users to run docker containers that expect more
isolation than is default in Singularity, and that can create files on
startup. This is a simple short-hand to enable `--contain-all,
--no-init, --no-umask, --writable-tmpfs`. These options give the best
chance of an OCI/Docker container working as expected but *without*
requiring the user/uts/net namespaces that we can't rely on in all
installations / configurations of Singularity.

Fixes: sylabs/singularity#75
