When I have administrative permissions enabled on my cockpit session, I should be able to select another user than the one I am actively logged in as, as the owner of a new container. This should be a dropdown or autocompleted text entry box of existing local users on the host system. The selected user should apply to the ownership of the directories, files, and container processes.

This is a duplicate of #716 more or less.

The way cockpit-podman works won't implement it this way as the logged in user is the user connecting to the podman socket. We don't know what users might have a container running so we would have to try to detect a podman socket for all available users which doesn't scale.
