Show container size when running list command

[Jacalz]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I want to be able to know the size of my installed containers. If you have many different toolboxes with different configurations like different packages, different distributions and different installed packages it would be good to be able to compare sizes between them.

Describe the solution you'd like

A column with size when running toolbox list.

Describe alternatives you've considered

A flag to pass to the toolbox list command to show sizes.

Additional information

Related to #752.

Sounds like a reasonable request. Patches are welcome :).

Will require adding a new cmd option, plumbing it down to podman.GetContainers, process the received JSON and present it. Just check when the option/information became available so that we don't have to raise our minimal Podman support.

Cool. I'm a bit weighed down with university studies at the moment, but I might consider it some time in the future :)

I know the feeling :). The incentive was meant for all potential contributors.

Is this a issue for newcommers?

[Jacalz]

I think so. From what I can see, it should be relatively straight forward to implement.

Can I try working on this? Also, wanted to ask if we can build & install toolbox within a toolbox?

Of course 👍.

It is buildable and installable but there's no point in running it in a toolbx because Toolbx sends commands from within a container to the host. Instead, build it in a toolbx and run on the host.
