Use a private UTS namespace to provide a deterministic host/domain name to builders

Browse source 
In chroot builds, set the host name to "localhost" and the domain name
to "(none)" (the latter being the kernel's default).  This improves
determinism a bit further.

P.S. I have to idea what UTS stands for.
