process: Unshare UTS namespace, and set hostname to 'localhost' Use UTS namespace to override hostname when network-sandbox is enabled. Set it to 'localhost' as that has a better chance of being present in /etc/hosts. This fixes tests in some packages that try to connect to localhost via hostname obtained using gethostname(), e.g. docker-py, and suffer resolution problems due to the system hostname not being defined in /etc/hosts.
