dnf in Dockerfiles

Scott we found an interesting problem with libvirt protections on
/dev/kvm.  If you run this container on an atomic machine, the device
has the wrong protections.  You need to add chmod 666 /dev/kvm to make
it work, or

chmod 660 /dev/kvm
chown root:qemu /dev/kvm

I think this would break on other machines that do not have libvirt
installed on the host.
