[PATCH v2 4/6] selftests/landlock: Test LANDLOCK_SCOPE_SYSV_MSG_QUEUE

Add selftests for SysV message queue scoped right.
Use the existing scoped domain harness for msgget, and another fixture
for testing msgsnd, msgrcv and msgctl.
Pass the msqid around for coverage of non-msgget syscalls, since calling
msgget while already restricted would fail and prevent testing the
operation under test.
Denials are checked against -EACCES rather than -EPERM: msgget,
msgsnd, msgrcv and msgctl(IPC_STAT) all reach the Landlock scope
check via ipcperms(), whose callers map every non-zero return into
-EACCES before propagating it to user space.
Track the created msqid in the fixture and remove it from
FIXTURE_TEARDOWN_PARENT() so that queues are reclaimed even when a
failed assertion aborts a test, and so that the removal is never
subject to the scoping under test.
Also add CONFIG_SYSVIPC to the selftest config fragment since the new
test requires SysV IPC support.
