If /tmp/devcontainercli-$USER does not exist, devcontainer fails to start

[staffanf]

We have a new issue where one of our devcontainers do not start the first time after reboot. It must be rebuilt before it works.

This devcontainer uses docker-compose and building from the compose-file.

I can reproduce it 100% of the time with this devcontainer but not with our other devcontainers.

I have created a repo which reproduces this issue: https://github.com/staffanf/vscode-remote-release-issue-9138

• VSCode Version: 1.83.1

• Local OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS

• Remote OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS docker container

• Remote Extension/Connection Type: Containers

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Reboot machine or manually remove /tmp/devcontainercli-$USER/
2. Open a devcontainer using docker-compose
3. ERROR: Starting devcontainer crashes with error since it's missing this tmp file
4. Reopen locally
5. Rebuild and reopen container
6. Container starts normally
