Mickaël Salaün 935a04923a nsproxy: Add FOR_EACH_NS_TYPE() X-macro and CLONE_NS_ALL ...

Introduce the FOR_EACH_NS_TYPE(X) macro as the single source of truth
for the set of (struct type, CLONE_NEW* flag) pairs that define Linux
namespace types.

Currently, the list of CLONE_NEW* flags is duplicated inline in
multiple call sites and would need another copy in each new consumer.
This makes it easy to miss one when a new namespace type is added.

Derive two things from the X-macro:

- CLONE_NS_ALL: Bitmask of all known CLONE_NEW* flags, usable as a
  validity mask or iteration bound.

- ns_common_type(): Rewritten to use the X-macro via a leading-comma
  _Generic pattern, so the struct-to-flag mapping stays in sync with the
  flag set automatically.

Replace the inline flag enumerations in copy_namespaces(),
unshare_nsproxy_namespaces(), check_setns_flags(), and
ksys_unshare() with CLONE_NS_ALL.

When a new namespace type is added, only FOR_EACH_NS_TYPE needs to
be updated; CLONE_NS_ALL, ns_common_type(), and all the call sites
pick up the change automatically.
