Using bootc image copy-to-storage

This experimental command is intended to aid in booting local builds.

Invoking this command will default to copying the booted container image into the containers-storage: area as used by e.g. podman, under the image tag localhost/bootc by default. It can then be managed independently; used as a base image, pushed to a registry, etc.

Run bootc image copy-to-storage --help for more options.

Example workflow:

$ bootc image copy-to-storage
$ cat Containerfile
FROM localhost/bootc
...
$ podman build -t localhost/bootc-custom .
$ bootc switch --transport containers-storage localhost/bootc-custom
