TestDockerMemoryMetrics test fails on recent runc

This bug affects JDKs < 15.

With recent runc as OCI runtime, --kernel-memory option is being ignored. I.e. even if you specify a value it'll not populate. The Linux kernel deprecated the feature and runc did so to. 'crun', another runtime is about to ignore the option too. References:
runc: https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/pull/2840
podman PR to remove (hide) the option: https://github.com/containers/podman/pull/12048

The effect of this is that container test TestDockerMemoryMetrics.java fails on recent docker (which uses runc by default). It also fails when run with podman and runc as runtime.

Failure looks like this:
========== NEW TEST CASE: testKernelMemoryLimit, value = 100m

The stand-alone Docker/podman equivalent is:

Note the huge value instead of the (previously) expected value of 209715200 for the kernel memory limit.

It doesn't affect JDK mainline as it has cgroups v2 support and the follow-up fix of that, JDK-8240189, included a fix for this issue. JDK-8240189 landed in JDK 15. In particular this hunk from JDK-8240189 needs backporting to older releases:
