Because we have the overlay solution, we can drop runc-dmz binary
solution since it has too many limitations.

Containerd pre-creates userns and netns before calling runc, which
results in the current code not working when SELinux is enabled,
resulting in the following error:
> runc create failed: unable to start container process: error during
container init: error mounting "mqueue" to rootfs at "/dev/mqueue":
setxattr /path/to/rootfs/dev/mqueue: operation not permitted
The solution is to become root in the user namespace right after
we join it.
Fixes#4466.

Since Go 1.19, the same functionality is there in os/exec package.
As we require go 1.22 now, there's no need to have this.

This reverts commit 65a1074c75.
We needed [1] because when we removed the bindfd logic in [2] we had not
yet moved the binary cloning logic to Go and thus it was necessary to
increase the memory limit in CI because the clone was happening after
joining the cgroup. However, [3] finally moved that code to Go and thus
the cloning is now done outside of the container's cgroup and thus is no
longer accounted as part of the container's memory usage at any point.
Now we can properly support running a simple container with lower memory
usage as we did before.

[2]: commit b999376fb2 ("nsenter: cloned_binary: remove bindfd logic entirely")

There is a race situation when we are opening a file, if there is a
small fd was closed at that time, maybe it will be reused by safeExe.
Because of Go stdlib fds shuffling bug, if the fd of safeExe is too
small, go stdlib will dup3 it to another fd, or dup3 a other fd to this
fd, then it will cause the fd type cmd.Path refers to a random path,
and it can lead to an error "permission denied" when starting the process.
Please see #4294 and <https://github.com/golang/go/issues/61751>.
So we should not use the original fd of safeExe, but use the fd after
shuffled by Go stdlib. Because Go stdlib will guarantee this fd refers to
the correct file.

Commit b999376fb2 ("nsenter: cloned_binary: remove bindfd logic
entirely") removed the read-only bind-mount logic from our cloned binary
code because it wasn't really safe because a container with
CAP_SYS_ADMIN could remove the MS_RDONLY bit and get write access to
/proc/self/exe (even with user namespaces this could've been an issue
because it's not clear if the flags are locked).
However, copying a binary does seem to have a minor performance impact.
The only way to have no performance impact would be for the kernel to
block these write attempts, but barring that we could try to reduce the
overhead by coming up with a mount that cannot have it's read-only bits
cleared.
The "simplest" solution is to create a temporary overlayfs using
fsopen(2) which uses the directory where runc exists as a lowerdir,
ensuring that the container cannot access the underlying file -- and we
don't have to do any copies.
While fsopen(2) is not free because mount namespace cloning is usually
expensive (and so it seems like the difference would be marginal), some
basic performance testing seems to indicate there is a ~60% improvement
doing it this way and that it has effectively no overhead even when
compared to just using /proc/self/exe directly:

This test case is frequently hanging recently. Might be caused
by a recent kernel update from 5.14.0-427.33.1.el9_4.x86_64 to
5.14.0-427.37.1.el9_4.x86_64.
Could not reproduce locally.
Let's skip it for now.

The issue quoted is now fixed, so add some information about the fixed
kernel version, and remove links to older discussions about idmapped
mounts security.
We can actually remove all of it for now, but let's keep it. Change
the skip message to say which kernel is required.

This initWaiter logic was introduced by commit 4ecff8d9, but since the logic of
/proc/self/exe was moved out of runc init in commit 0e9a335, this
seems unnecessary to have initWaiter.
Remove it.
This essentially reverts commit 4ecff8d9.

While we did set +x when "sealing" regular temporary files, the "is
executable" checks were done before then and would thus fail, causing
the fallback to not work properly.
So just set +x after we create the file. We already have a O_RDWR handle
open when we do the chmod so we won't get permission issues when writing
to the file.

We are not really interested in the capabilities of the current process,
so there is no need to load those.
This results in some performance improvement since now the capability
package don't have to parse /proc/self/status.

The example of starting memfd-bind via systemd in README did not work
for me (Fedora 40, systemd 255):
# systemctl status memfd-bind@/usr/bin/runc
Invalid unit name "memfd-bind@/usr/bin/runc" escaped as "memfd-bind@-usr-bin-runc" (maybe you should use systemd-escape?).
○ memfd-bind@-usr-bin-runc.service
Loaded: bad-setting (Reason: Unit memfd-bind@-usr-bin-runc.service has a bad unit file setting.)
Active: inactive (dead)
Docs: https://github.com/opencontainers/runc
So, let's use systemd-escape -p ("path") in the README example,
and use %f in the systemd unit file to prepend the slash to the
filename.
