Title:
  lxc-list crashes when passed --nesting with a running nested container

Status in lxc package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in lxc source package in Raring:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  == Rationale ==
  lxc-list is a compatibility wrapper for lxc-ls printing a deprecation warning before showing its output.
  As lxc-ls calls itself to deal with nested containers, that deprecation warning is causing invalid json to be generated and causes a crash.
  The solution is to update the distro patch to only show the warning when lxc-ls isn't calling itself.

  == Test case ==
  1) Create a first container
  2) Create a sub-container (switch to the nesting apparmor profile, install lxc in the container, create a sub-container)
  3) Run: lxc-list --nesting on the host
  4) lxc-list shouldn't crash anymore

  == Regression potential ==
  The only difference is the addition of a condition for the deprecation warning, so I'm not seeing any room for regression there.
