6485f521c9 tools: fakeroot: use TCP as IPC transport
Some environments, e.g. first gen WSL, do not support SysV IPC.
Enforce the use of TCP transport instead which should be universally
available.

9e7ef46065 tools: add fakeroot
SELinux support requires setting the appropriate SELinux security context
to files and directories, which needs to happen at build time in order
to support read-only root filesystem scenarios. In order to create these
security contexts, we will have to run some SELinux-specific tools on
the host machine, but that requires root access. This adds support for
fakeroot, which the build process will use to run the SELinux security
context creation and the image creation.
