local-derivation-goal.cc: warn if failing and /proc/self/ns/user missing

Browse source 
This commit causes nix to `warn()` if sandbox setup has failed and
`/proc/self/ns/user` does not exist.  This is usually a sign that the
kernel was compiled without `CONFIG_USER_NS=y`, which is required for
sandboxing.
