Description

These are currently built as a part of the docker-engine.

We should probably extract them into separate packages.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the related Moby pull request 51733 and the packaging path for docker-engine. Trace how tini and rootlesskit are currently built, then define the package boundaries needed to ship them separately. Done means both components are produced as separate packages rather than as part of docker-engine.
