[PATCH v5 2/6] clone: add CLONE_NNP

[Christian Brauner]

Add a new clone3() flag CLONE_NNP that sets no_new_privs on the child
process at clone time. This is analogous to prctl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS)
but applied at process creation rather than requiring a separate step
after the child starts running.

CLONE_NNP is rejected with CLONE_THREAD. It's conceptually a lot simpler
if the whole thread-group is forced into NNP and not have single threads
running around with NNP.
