Bug description:
  When running any snap from a place that is not inside the snap chroot
  (like /tmp/some-subdir or /srv) running the snap-confine launcher dies
  with a ugly error.

  TEST CASE:
  1. mkdir /tmp/99
  2. cd /tmp/99
  3. sudo snap install hello-world
  4. verify that it shows: "cannot remain in /tmp/99, please run this snap from another location. errmsg: No such file or directory"
  5. install snap-confine from xenial-proposed
  6. verify that hello-world runs now (and shows a message that it switches to /tmp)
