Shailend ChandandgVisor bot 329cdabbf5 Implement pidfds
This patch introduces pidfd support roughly up to Linux 6.8. Linux selftests
at this version pass, and are now run as an //image_test target. Some features,
like PIDFD_THREAD, that occur later than 6.8 in Linux, are included.

It includes:
- These new syscalls:
  - pidfd_open()
  - pidfd_getfd()
  - pidfd_send_signal()
- New aspects to these existing syscalls:
  - waitid() in its support of P_PIDFD
  - clone()/clone3() in their support of CLONE_PIDFD
  - poll()/epoll()/select() in their support for pidfds
  - setns() in its support for pidfds
  - pid introspection via /proc/[pid]/fdinfo/[pidfd]

It excludes:
- pidfdfs: pidfds are backed by the anon inode right now
- ioctls to retrieve namespace fds using a pidfd
- process_madvise()

Updates #5839.
