Subject: [PATCH] remove: podman system migrate (wrong tool for the wrong
 problem)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

It was added to "pick up subuid/subgid mappings" but that's not what it
does — it migrates container storage after a Podman version upgrade.
Subuid/subgid changes are picked up by restarting the Podman socket,
which the script already does. The only effect of running it was stopping
all containers on every platform start.
