Description

I'd like to be able to create multiple containers to work on the same project in parallel without affecting each other, e.g. working on a new git branch while other branch is building.

I guess this can be done by running `fuse-overlayfs` manually in each container but it'd be great if `toolbox create` offered an option like: `--unshare-path=` or similar that allowed to work on top of the path without changing the underlying file system.
