add domainname spec entity

add the domainname entity so that container runtimes can add special handling similar to hostname. The current workaround of adding a sysctl for kernel.domainname only works with rootful execution in most cases. This will allow for rootless execution.

container runtimes will be able to add special handling as they do for hostname, using setdomainname to add the entry to /proc/sys/kernel/domainname.
