📄 Description

This pull request adds two new overlay options:

--overlay-named - creates and uses a named overlay in the ~/.firejail directory
--overlay-path - creates and uses an overlay in an arbitrary location

These changes fulfil the enhancement requests outlined in #239.
Now, the comments in that issue did mention a security problem with this feature, so I am not sure if my changes qualify as safe. Would love to see some comments about that.
