Alban Crequy 9c444070ec Open bind mount sources from the host userns
The source of the bind mount might not be accessible in a different user
namespace because a component of the source path might not be traversed
under the users and groups mapped inside the user namespace. This caused
errors such as the following:

  # time="2020-06-22T13:48:26Z" level=error msg="container_linux.go:367:
  starting container process caused: process_linux.go:459:
  container init caused: rootfs_linux.go:58:
  mounting \"/tmp/busyboxtest/source-inaccessible/dir\"
  to rootfs at \"/tmp/inaccessible\" caused:
  stat /tmp/busyboxtest/source-inaccessible/dir: permission denied"

To solve this problem, this patch performs the following:

1. in nsexec.c, it opens the source path in the host userns (so we have
   the right permissions to open it) but in the container mntns (so the
   kernel cross mntns mount check let us mount it later:
   https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v5.8/fs/namespace.c#L2312).

2. in nsexec.c, it passes the file descriptors of the source to the
   child process with SCM_RIGHTS.

3. In runc-init in Golang, it finishes the mounts while inside the
   userns even without access to the some components of the source
   paths.

Passing the fds with SCM_RIGHTS is necessary because once the child
process is in the container mntns, it is already in the container userns
so it cannot temporarily join the host mntns.

This patch uses the existing mechanism with _LIBCONTAINER_* environment
variables to pass the file descriptors from runc to runc init.

This patch uses the existing mechanism with the Netlink-style bootstrap
to pass information about the list of source mounts to nsexec.c.

Rootless containers don't use this bind mount sources fdpassing
mechanism because we can't setns() to the target mntns in a rootless
container (we don't have the privileges when we are in the host userns).

This patch takes care of using O_CLOEXEC on mount fds, and close them
early.

Fixes: #2484.
