8e8b136c49 tree-wide: use /proc/thread-self for thread-local state
With the idmap work, we will have a tainted Go thread in our
thread-group that has a different mount namespace to the other threads.
It seems that (due to some bad luck) the Go scheduler tends to make this
thread the thread-group leader in our tests, which results in very
baffling failures where /proc/self/mountinfo produces gibberish results.

In order to avoid this, switch to using /proc/thread-self for everything
that is thread-local. This primarily includes switching all file
descriptor paths (CLONE_FS), all of the places that check the current
cgroup (technically we never will run a single runc thread in a separate
cgroup, but better to be safe than sorry), and the aforementioned
mountinfo code. We don't need to do anything for the following because
the results we need aren't thread-local:

 * Checks that certain namespaces are supported by stat(2)ing
   /proc/self/ns/...

 * /proc/self/exe and /proc/self/cmdline are not thread-local.

 * While threads can be in different cgroups, we do not do this for the
   runc binary (or libcontainer) and thus we do not need to switch to
   the thread-local version of /proc/self/cgroups.

 * All of the CLONE_NEWUSER files are not thread-local because you
   cannot set the usernamespace of a single thread (setns(CLONE_NEWUSER)
   is blocked for multi-threaded programs).

Note that we have to use runtime.LockOSThread when we have an open
handle to a tid-specific procfs file that we are operating on multiple
times. Go can reschedule us such that we are running on a different
thread and then kill the original thread (causing -ENOENT or similarly
confusing errors). This is not strictly necessary for most usages of
/proc/thread-self (such as using /proc/thread-self/fd/$n directly) since
only operating on the actual inodes associated with the tid requires
this locking, but because of the pre-3.17 fallback for CentOS, we have
to do this in most cases.

In addition, CentOS's kernel is too old for /proc/thread-self, which
requires us to emulate it -- however in rootfs_linux.go, we are in the
container pid namespace but /proc is the host's procfs. This leads to
the incredibly frustrating situation where there is no way (on pre-4.1
Linux) to figure out which /proc/self/task/... entry refers to the
current tid. We can just use /proc/self in this case.

Yes this is all pretty ugly. I also wish it wasn't necessary.

ebc2e7c435 Support time namespace
"time" namespace was introduced in Linux v5.6
support new time namespace to set boottime and monotonic time offset

Example runtime spec

"timeOffsets": {
    "monotonic": {
        "secs": 172800,
        "nanosecs": 0
    },
    "boottime": {
        "secs": 604800,
        "nanosecs": 0
    }
}

9a3a8a5ebf libcontainer: implement CLONE_NEWCGROUP
This is a very simple implementation because it doesn't require any
configuration unlike the other namespaces, and in its current state it
only masks paths.

This feature is available in Linux 4.6+ and is enabled by default for
kernels compiled with CONFIG_CGROUP=y.

e939079acf Always save own namespace paths
fix #1476

If containerA shares namespace, say ipc namespace, with containerB, then
its ipc namespace path would be the same as containerB and be stored in
`state.json`. Exec into containerA will just read the namespace paths
stored in this file and join these namespaces. So, if containerB has
already been stopped, `docker exec containerA` will fail.

To address this issue, we should always save own namespace paths no
matter if we share namespaces with other containers.

4c67360296 Clean up unix vs linux usage
FreeBSD does not support cgroups or namespaces, which the code suggested, and is not supported
in runc anyway right now. So clean up the file naming to use `_linux` where appropriate.
