podman update: limit device on remote system doesn't work

[Honny1]

Issue Description

Device limiting does not work because Major and Minor numbers of devices that are on the client's machine are sent through the API. Therefore, if the device does not exist on the client, it is not possible to limit device the device. If the device exists on the client side, it is possible that there may be different Major and Minor numbers on the server side, so it could restrict a different device.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Set up the client and server (it must be a different machine than the client) according to the instructions: https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/docs/tutorials/remote_client.md
2. On the server create a new device or choose a device not present on the client.
3. Use the client to create a container on the server and try to limit the new device for the container with the update command:
   • podman-remote run -dt --replace --name test quay.io/libpod/alpine:latest top
   • podman-remote update test --device-read-bps=/dev/usbmon4:10mb

Describe the results you received

On Linux Client: The last command gave an error message: Error: could not parse throttle device at /dev/test_device: no such file or directory
On Mac OS client: No error happened. However, the podman exec test cat /sys/fs/cgroup/io.max command failed to verify the limitation. The file is empty.

Describe the results you expected

The device will be restricted and the output of the podman exec test cat /sys/fs/cgroup/io.max command will contain this line:
236:4 rbps=10485760 wbps=max riops=max wiops=max
