Description

@sgotand

Currently runu use "github.com/docker/go-p9p" for providing root filesystem, but it have some problems.
For example, when overwriting file or touch files,
their attributes seems to be written mistakenly and reading such files result in hang.

this problem can be replayed with
https://github.com/progrunner17/runu/blob/feature-vol-mount-hang-env/volume_mount_hang_script.sh

According to the survey with 9ps, sample 9p server CLI command from go-p9p, and Linux-builtin 9p client,
this problem might be caused by the misalignment of Twstat , a operation of 9p protocol.

In addition to this problem, go-p9p has been archived and no longer maintenanced.
Therefore @thehajime started to port 9p mechanism to "github.com/hugelgupf/p9" rather than "github.com/docker/go-p9p"
https://github.com/ukontainer/runu/tree/feature-vol-mount-hang-env-take1

However it still have problems.
