[PATCH v2 21/39] af_unix: handle idmapped mounts

When binding a non-abstract AF_UNIX socket it will gain a representation in the
filesystem. Enable the socket infrastructure to handle idmapped mounts by
passing down the user namespace of the mount the socket will be created
from. Non-idmapped mounts will not see any altered behavior.
