Unik doesn't create firecracker socket and clean up leftover files

[gcetusic]

When trying to run firecracker this error occurs:

goc@gudmund:~/unik$ ./unik run --instanceName filter_instance --imageName filter
INFO[0000] running unik run                              env="map[]" host="localhost:3000" imageName=filter instanceName=filter_instance mounts="map[]"
ERRO[0000] failed running instance: [cmd/run.go:98] running image failed: %v: {[client/instances.go:103] failed with status 500: Put http://localhost/machine-config: dial unix /home/goc/.unik/firecracker/instances/filter_instance/firecracker.sock: connect: no such file or directory} 

After failing to run, it can't be retried because it doesn't clean up the files:

goc@gudmund:~/unik$ ./unik run --instanceName filter_instance --imageName filter
INFO[0000] running unik run                              env="map[]" host="localhost:3000" imageName=filter instanceName=filter_instance mounts="map[]"
ERRO[0000] failed running instance: [cmd/run.go:98] running image failed: %v: {[client/instances.go:103] failed with status 500: [firecracker/run_instance.go:52] can't create instance dir: {mkdir /home/goc/.unik/firecracker/instances/filter_instance: file exists}} 

Output of the daemon (with some prints added):

My guess is that the problem is INFO[0001] firecracker exited: status=0
This exit handler function waits and the process it's waiting for (cmd.Start()) is finished too soon (removes the socket file)
