Re: Review Request 45358: Improved overlay backend to make the rootfs
writable.

I don't like the fact that we use 'sandbox' for scratch space. There are two reasons: 1) for command tasks, we'll bind mount rootfs into the sandbox. I don't want to introduce the complexity of cyclic dependency (rootfs depends on sandbox, sandbox has rootfs bind mounts). 2) we don't remove scratch space after container terminates. I'd like to avoid that.
Instead, could you please use the provisioner directory for that. More precisely, this is probably what you need:
1) in paths.hpp|cpp, introduce a method to get the backend directory: `getBackendDir(provisionerDir, containerId, backend);`
2) create scratch space for each container under backends/overlay/scratch/<rootfsid>.
3) For `provision` interface, you need to add a new parameter which is the backend dir for that container (provision(layers, rootfs, backendDir);)
In `provision`, you can use 'basename' to get the rootfsid and create the scratch space under backends/overlay/scratch.
