If Podman starts us, we need to be able to create and use a UNIX
domain socket file under ifconfig_var_run_t or container_var_run_t:
add the related permissions.

The failure reported by Jan would have been fixed by a simple:

  allow pasta_t ifconfig_var_run_t:sock_file create;

but we'll need more than that for actual operation with pesto(1),
and to cover all possible cases.
