* [pve-devel] [PATCH container] oci create: fix creating privileged containers

Previously, creating privileged containers from OCI images failed with:
`unable to create CT 123 - Invalid argument`

This was caused by an empty $id_map being passed to run_in_userns.

This commit fixes this by making the call to run_in_userns conditional,
based on whether $id_map is empty or not.
