selftests/bpf: Add BPF token-enabled tests



Add a selftest that attempts to conceptually replicate intended BPF
token use cases inside user namespaced container.

Child process is forked. It is then put into its own userns and mountns.
Child creates BPF FS context object. This ensures child userns is
captured as the owning userns for this instance of BPF FS. Given setting
delegation mount options is privileged operation, we ensure that child
cannot set them.

This context is passed back to privileged parent process through Unix
socket, where parent sets up delegation options, creates, and mounts it
as a detached mount. This mount FD is passed back to the child to be
used for BPF token creation, which allows otherwise privileged BPF
operations to succeed inside userns.

We validate that all of token-enabled privileged commands (BPF_BTF_LOAD,
BPF_MAP_CREATE, and BPF_PROG_LOAD) work as intended. They should only
succeed inside the userns if a) BPF token is provided with proper
allowed sets of commands and types; and b) namespaces CAP_BPF and other
privileges are set. Lacking a) or b) should lead to -EPERM failures.

Based on suggested workflow by Christian Brauner ([0]).
