 Add support for reading the container ID from the proc filesystem.
I think this could be useful in general. Please consider this to be part of 
the full patch set and not something merely used to debug the patches.

 This is a read from the proc entry of the form /proc/PID/containerid
 where PID is the process ID of the task whose container ID is sought.
 
 The read expects up to a u64 value (unset: 18446744073709551615).
