nsfs: support file handles

nsfs: support file handles

A while ago we added support for file handles to pidfs so pidfds can be
encoded and decoded as file handles. Userspace has adopted this quickly
and it's proven very useful. Implement file handles for namespaces as
well.

A process is not always able to open /proc/self/ns/. That requires
procfs to be mounted and for /proc/self/ or /proc/self/ns/ to not be
overmounted. However, userspace can always derive a namespace fd from
a pidfd. And that always works for a task's own namespace.

There's no need to introduce unnecessary behavioral differences between
/proc/self/ns/ fds, pidfd-derived namespace fds, and file-handle-derived
namespace fds. So namespace file handles are always decodable if the
caller is located in the namespace the file handle refers to.

This also allows a task to e.g., store a set of file handles to its
namespaces in a file on-disk so it can verify when it gets rexeced that
they're still valid and so on. This is akin to the pidfd use-case.

Or just plainly for namespace comparison reasons where a file handle to
the task's own namespace can be easily compared against others.
