[Bug 986956] [NEW] lxc-execute does not work with commands that require input from terminal

[B Clausius]

Public bug reported:

1. $ sudo lxc-execute -n container /bin/bash
2. -> The prompt is shown
3. Type echo hello
4. -> The characters you type are not displayed, but the command output is displayed
5. -> The message "lxc-execute: Input/output error - failed to read" is displayed
6. Type exit
7. -> [1]+  Stopped       sudo lxc-execute -n precise /bin/bash
8. Type fg and the container ends.

For other commands like nano or less it's the same. The output is
correct but the input is not handled right, the effects in 4.,5. and 7.
can vary.
