This commit only moves the location of the 'templates', which are
just scripts that install a guest fs.  It doesn't/shouldn't move
the location of the actual guest fs's.

AFAICS we are still using /var/cache/lxc right now.  Which I like
better than /var/lib/lxc.  If it has 'lib' in the pathname, it should
have libraries!

I don't see that being used on my system, or in the git commit
you cited.
