Issue Description

here is a difference in podman docker emulation api.

In the crun config, swappiness is unset, which means this value can be return to null in podman inspect.
Also, on system with cgoupv2 changing swappiness does not make any sense, so it should be unset and give a null.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. create any containers with docker then inspect it
2. create any containers with podman then inspect it
3. compare the dirrerence

Describe the results you received

podman inspect gives MemorySwappiness to 0 instead of null .

Describe the results you expected

this value should be null like docker inspect
