[PATCH v5 3/4] selftests/bpf: Add tests verifying bpf lsm userns_create hook

The LSM hook userns_create was introduced to provide LSM's an
opportunity to block or allow unprivileged user namespace creation. This
test serves two purposes: it provides a test eBPF implementation, and
tests the hook successfully blocks or allows user namespace creation.

This tests 3 cases:

        1. Unattached bpf program does not block unpriv user namespace
           creation.
        2. Attached bpf program allows user namespace creation given
           CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges.
        3. Attached bpf program denies user namespace creation for a
           user without CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

---
The generic deny_namespace file name is used for future namespace
expansion. I didn't want to limit these files to just the create_user_ns
hook.
Changes since v4:
- None
Changes since v3:
- Explicitly set CAP_SYS_ADMIN to test namespace is created given
  permission
- Simplify BPF test to use sleepable hook only
- Prefer unshare() over clone() for tests
Changes since v2:
- Rename create_user_ns hook to userns_create
Changes since v1:
- Introduce this patch
