'partial' directory ownership and permissions

[rstreif]

Issue Description

I am running podman as a regular user (rootless) explicitly setting the root directory to a particular location. When podman creates the images the 'partial' folders always seem to be having a random user id as owner but the user's group id:

$ ls -l containers/root/overlay/8b845b0d3b07a3aa40e875124add71a06ff27637e29805aee92841df571e6c8d/diff/var/cache/apt/archives/ total 4 -rw-r-----. 1 rstreif rstreif 0 May 23 11:01 lock drwx------. 2 100041 rstreif 4096 May 23 11:01 partial

Due to the ownership and permission settings the user cannot read/write the partial directory. The only workaround is to change ownership as root. However, that is not practical in an automated build environment.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Run podman as user setting --root to a directory
2. Use a Docker file pulling an image e.g. Debian and install a couple of packages
3. Attempt to delete the directory --root is pointing to

Describe the results you received

'partial' directory is owned by a non-existing user with the user id 100041. All other directories are correctly owned by the user running podman.

Describe the results you expected

The 'partial' directory should also be owned by the user running podman.
