the cgroup hierarchy

cg_setup_mode_t() - A function that returns the current cgroup setup mode
(legacy, hybrid, or unified)
Various functions for better traversal through a struct cgroup
cgroup_create_scope() and cgroup_create_scope2() for creating systemd scopes
cgconfigparser now supports a systemd section
- Libcgroup python bindings have matured greatly but are still considered
experimental and subject to change. Community feedback here would be greatly
appreciated
