Also update README and ensure we point to v4.0.3 as the latest
release, instead of v3.4.7 (which is newer chronologically but
not by actual version).

As the title says. Adds a Podman hello image
to the home page. I ran it on windows, so had to have
a blue screen to honor that!

There's a significant number of non-IRC users in the bridged rooms,
both Matrix and Discord. So, we should mention those options too.

Basic theory: We remove the container, but *only from the DB*.
We leave it in c/storage, we leave the lock allocated, we leave
it running (if it is). Then we create an identical container with
an altered name, and add that back to the database. Theoretically
we now have a renamed container.
The advantage of this approach is that it doesn't just apply to
rename - we can use this to make *any* configuration change to a
container that does not alter its container ID.
Potential problems are numerous. This process is *THOROUGHLY*
non-atomic at present - if you `kill -9` Podman mid-rename things
will be in a bad place, for example. Also, we can't rename
containers that can't be removed normally - IE, containers with
dependencies (pod infra containers, for example).
The largest potential improvement will be to move the majority of
the work into the DB, with a `RecreateContainer()` method - that
will add atomicity, and let us remove the container without
worrying about depencies and similar issues.
Potential problems: long-running processes that edit the DB and
may have an older version of the configuration around. Most
notable example is `podman run --rm` - the removal command needed
to be manually edited to avoid this one. This begins to get at
the heart of me not wanting to do this in the first place...
This provides CLI and API implementations for frontend, but no
tunnel implementation. It will be added in a future release (just
held back for time now - we need this in 3.0 and are running low
on time).
This is honestly kind of horrifying, but I think it will work.

Remove varlink support from Podman

Switch the libpod references to podman in the CONTRIBUTING.md.
Update the cirrus-ci link so we can get a green build again :)

We no longer have to dance around the fact that the repo is named
"libpod" which simplifies the opening a bit. Also, refresh our
scope section and to-do section a bit.

Some time ago, we moved the Seccomp policy (and related setup
code) to a place where all our tools could share it [1]. We did
not, however, remove the in-repo seccomp.json file. Over the last
year or so, the in-repo seccomp policy has become progressively
more and more outdated, with no effort made to maintain it
(because what sense is there in keeping a duplicate?). Today, a
friend came to me and asked if a Podman container could access
keyctl, assuming it could not because he was reading the outdated
Seccomp policy which does not allow it. Since it's becoming clear
that this file is doing no good and actively causing confusion,
let's just drop it.

We’re now able to build a static podman binary based on a custom nix
derivation. This is integrated in cirrus as well, whereas a later target
would be to provide a self-contained static binary bundle which can be
installed on any Linux x64-bit system.

I noticed a large number of searches for Varlink on the Github
page, and that the readme still called it out as our only
supported API. This updates the readme to remove links to Varlink
API documentation, and points to docs for the new HTTP API.
I also updated other parts to reflect the current direction the
project is taking (Podman v2 and the HTTP API).
