Eelco Dolstra bc1d9fd8b5 Check whether we can use PID namespaces
In unprivileged podman containers, /proc is not fully visible (there
are other filesystems mounted on subdirectories of /proc). Therefore
we can't mount a new /proc in the sandbox that matches the PID
namespace of the sandbox. So this commit automatically disables
sandboxing if /proc is not fully visible.

Eelco Dolstra fb2f7f5dcc Fix auto-uid-allocation in Docker containers
This didn't work because sandboxing doesn't work in Docker. However,
the sandboxing check is done lazily - after clone(CLONE_NEWNS) fails,
we retry with sandboxing disabled. But at that point, we've already
done UID allocation under the assumption that user namespaces are
enabled.

So let's get rid of the "goto fallback" logic and just detect early
whether user / mount namespaces are enabled.

This commit also gets rid of a compatibility hack for some ancient
Linux kernels (<2.13).
