Giuseppe Scrivano f172ff789b rootless: use nsfs file handles to persist namespaces
use name_to_handle_at and open_by_handle_at to persist rootless
namespaces without needing a pause process.

The namespace file handles are stored in a file and can be used to
rejoin the namespaces, as long as the namespaces still exist.

Fall back to the pause process approach only when the kernel doesn't
support nsfs handles (EOPNOTSUPP).

The feature is currently only enabled when the PODMAN_NO_PAUSE_PROCESS
environment variable is set.

These changes in the kernel are required (landed in Linux 6.18):
