[PATCH] selftests/landlock: Improve ptrace_test with Yama

I found some issues running this new ptrace_test. Indeed, Yama doesn't
restrict PTRACE_MODE_READ whereas Landlock does. I also changed some
comments and socpe conditions. In fact, the final SKIP() wasn't a good
idea because it masks such potential errors; let's only use a log
message instead. I also removed the first SKIP() because we want
everything to be tested, and the MODE_READ does still matter anyway.

Please review this patch and squash it in yours.
