First: fix podman-registry script so it preserves the initial $PODMAN,
so all subsequent invocations of ps, logs, and stop will use the
same binary and arguments. Until now we've handled this by requiring
that our caller manage $PODMAN (and keep it the same), but that's
just wrong.
Next, simplify the golang interface: move the $PODMAN setting into
registry.go, instead of requiring e2e callers to set it. (This
could use some work: the local/remote conditional is icky)
And, minor cleanup: comments, and add an actual error-message check
Reason for this PR is a recurring flake, #18355, whose multiple
failure modes I truly can't understand. I don't think this PR
is going to fix it, but this is still necessary work.
