Container-based cross compilers have some issues which were overlooked

We seem to have dropped our gating somewhere. Previously if a user did
not have docker or podman on their system none of the container stuff
would run.
It's still there:
container="no"
if test $use_containers = "yes"; then
case $($python "$source_path"/tests/docker/docker.py probe) in
*docker) container=docker ;;
podman) container=podman ;;
no) container=no ;;
esac
if test "$container" != "no"; then
docker_py="$python $source_path/tests/docker/docker.py --engine
$container"

I think what's happening is that podman is there but there's no support
for rootless containers, so "podman run" fails.
