internal/app: do not return from shim start

The whole RunState ugliness and the other horrendous error handling conditions for internal/app come from an old design proposal for maintaining all app containers under the same daemon process for a user. The proposal was ultimately rejected but the implementation remained. It is removed here to alleviate internal/app from much of its ugliness and unreadability.
