Done, also submitted https://reviews.apache.org/r/51697/. Could you commit that 
as part of this chain? I did not add a `Capabilities::clearKeepCaps` as we 
currently have no use for it. I am also not sure how useful clearing keep caps 
again might be midterm as we'd likely never execute `setKeepCaps` in anything 
not already executing in a separate process we could just let die (like we do 
here).

I reworded the log output slightly to not require some `uid` anymore.

I was trying to minimize code behind `ifdef` guards. While it should not be 
possible to set the capabilities flag on non-Linux systems the `Flag` member is 
defined for all platforms as it has no dependencies on Linux-specific features.

I think there's actually no need to make a hard requirement on the agent to be 
run as root (at least to make use of capabilities) -- we do only require 
`SETPCAP` and that the capabilities requested for a container are contained in 
the agent's capabilities. I believe it makes sense to anticipate that users of 
this capabilities feature are aware of fine-grained permissions.

I added an additional note to the help text to make clear that `SETPCAP` is 
required for the agent.

I filed https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-6133.
