In #24658 we fixed a bug around client restarts where we would not assert
network namespaces existed and were properly configured when restoring
allocations. We introduced a call to the CNI `Check` method so that the plugins
could report correct config. But when we get an error from this call, we don't
log it unless the error is fatal. This makes it challenging to debug the case
where the initial check fails but we tear down the network and try again (as
described in #25510). Add a noisy log line here.

Some of our allocrunner hooks require a task environment for interpolating values based on the node or allocation. But several of the hooks accept an already-built environment or builder and then keep that in memory. Both of these retain a copy of all the node attributes and allocation metadata, which balloons memory usage until the allocation is GC'd.
While we'd like to look into ways to avoid keeping the allocrunner around entirely (see #25372), for now we can significantly reduce memory usage by creating the task environment on-demand when calling allocrunner methods, rather than persisting it in the allocrunner hooks.
In doing so, we uncover two other bugs:
* The WID manager, the group service hook, and the checks hook have to interpolate services for specific tasks. They mutated a taskenv builder to do so, but each time they mutate the builder, they write to the same environment map. When a group has multiple tasks, it's possible for one task to set an environment variable that would then be interpolated in the service definition for another task if that task did not have that environment variable. Only the service definition interpolation is impacted. This does not leak env vars across running tasks, as each taskrunner has its own builder.
To fix this, we move the `UpdateTask` method off the builder and onto the taskenv as the `WithTask` method. This makes a shallow copy of the taskenv with a deep clone of the environment map used for interpolation, and then overwrites the environment from the task.
* The checks hook interpolates Nomad native service checks only on `Prerun` and not on `Update`. This could cause unexpected deregistration and registration of checks during in-place updates. To fix this, we make sure we interpolate in the `Update` method.
I also bumped into an incorrectly implemented interface in the CSI hook. I've pulled that and some better guardrails out to https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/pull/25472.

While working on #25373, I noticed that the CSI hook's `Destroy` method doesn't
match the interface, which means it never gets called. Because this method only
cancels any in-flight CSI requests, the only impact of this bug is that any CSI
RPCs that are in-flight when an alloc is GC'd on the client or a dev agent is
shut down won't be interrupted gracefully.
Fix the interface, but also make static assertions for all the allocrunner hooks
in the production code, so that you can make changes to interfaces and have
compile-time assistance in avoiding mistakes.

When the Nomad client restarts and restores allocations, the network namespace
for an allocation may exist but no longer be correctly configured. For example,
if the host is rebooted and the task was a Docker task using a pause container,
the network namespace may be recreated by the docker daemon.
When we restore an allocation, use the CNI "check" command to verify that any
existing network namespace matches the expected configuration. This requires CNI
plugins of at least version 1.2.0 to avoid a bug in older plugin versions that
would cause the check to fail.
If the check fails, destroy the network namespace and try to recreate it from
scratch once. If that fails in the second pass, fail the restore so that the
allocation can be recreated (rather than silently having networking fail).
This should fix the gap left #24650 for Docker task drivers and any other
drivers with the `MustInitiateNetwork` capability.

This PR fixes a bug where the docker network pause container would not be
stopped and removed in the case where a node is restarted, the alloc is
moved to another node, the node comes back up. See the issue below for
full repro conditions.
Basically in the DestroyNetwork PostRun hook we would depend on the
NetworkIsolationSpec field not being nil - which is only the case
if the Client stays alive all the way from network creation to network
teardown. If the node is rebooted we lose that state and previously
would not be able to find the pause container to remove. Now, we manually
find the pause container by scanning them and looking for the associated
allocID.
Fixes#17299
Add a new hostname string parameter to the network block which
allows operators to specify the hostname of the network namespace.
Changing this causes a destructive update to the allocation and it
is omitted if empty from API responses. This parameter also supports
interpolation.
In order to have a hostname passed as a configuration param when
creating an allocation network, the CreateNetwork func of the
DriverNetworkManager interface needs to be updated. In order to
minimize the disruption of future changes, rather than add another
string func arg, the function now accepts a request struct along with
the allocID param. The struct has the hostname as a field.
The in-tree implementations of DriverNetworkManager.CreateNetwork
have been modified to account for the function signature change.
In updating for the change, the enhancement of adding hostnames to
network namespaces has also been added to the Docker driver, whilst
the default Linux manager does not current implement it.
When `network.mode = "bridge"`, we create a pause container in Docker with no
networking so that we have a process to hold the network namespace we create
in Nomad. The default `/etc/hosts` file of that pause container is then used
for all the Docker tasks that share that network namespace. Some applications
rely on this file being populated.
This changeset generates a `/etc/hosts` file and bind-mounts it to the
container when Nomad owns the network, so that the container's hostname has an
IP in the file as expected. The hosts file will include the entries added by
the Docker driver's `extra_hosts` field.
In this changeset, only the Docker task driver will take advantage of this
option, as the `exec`/`java` drivers currently copy the host's `/etc/hosts`
file and this can't be changed without breaking backwards compatibility. But
the fields are available in the task driver protobuf for community task
drivers to use if they'd like.
* ar: refactor network bridge config to use go-cni lib
* ar: use eth as the iface prefix for bridged network namespaces
* vendor: update containerd/go-cni package
* ar: update network hook to use TODO contexts when calling configurator
* unnecessary conversion
Adds a new Prerun and Postrun hooks to manage set up of network namespaces
on linux. Work still needs to be done to make the code platform agnostic and
support Docker style network initalization.
