podman-remote: build: timeout + unexpected EOF [flake]

[edsantiago]

This one is manifesting as flakes in the podman exec preserves container groups with --user and --group-add test, which is awkward because there are two other flakes in that test that I don't understand enough to file issues for.

The symptom is:

# podman-remote build ...
...
Error: unexpected EOF
Timed out after 120.000s.
Expected process to exit.  It did not.

The ones I've confirmed so far:

• gce_instance:prior-ubuntu : int remote ubuntu-2004 root host
  • PR System test for #9096 (truncated stdout) #9208
    • 02-02 22:32
    • 02-02 21:07

There's also this one from PR #9514, in int remote fedora-32 root host: log (I've manually Re-run this test, and am assuming that it will pass on rerun but it'll take 30 more minutes to find out). The test itself failed three times, but only the first was EOF.

No recent failures in the Podman exec [It] podman exec preserves container groups with --user and --group-add test; and the most recent two:

...manifest as the '0 errors occurred' flake (#9379). I wonder if it's the same bug? Closing on the assumption hope that they're the same.
