a pidfd is from a pid namespace not in the same namespace hierarchy as
the process accessing the fdinfo file, ensure the 'NSpid' shows 0 for
that pidfd, analogous to the 'Pid' entry.

tests: add pidfd poll tests

This adds testing for polling on pidfd of a process being killed. Test runs
10000 iterations by default to stress test pidfd polling functionality.
It accepts an optional command-line parameter to override the number or
iterations to run.
Specifically, it tests for:
- pidfd_open on a child process succeeds
- pidfd_send_signal on a child process succeeds
- polling on pidfd succeeds and returns exactly one event
- returned event is POLLIN
- event is received within 3 secs of the process being killed

10000 iterations was chosen because of the race condition being tested
which is not consistently reproducible but usually is revealed after less
than 2000 iterations.
Reveals race fixed by commit b191d6491be6 ("pidfd: fix a poll race when setting exit_state")

1. If a thread group leader exits while threads still there, then no

2. If a non-thread group leader does an execve, then the thread group
leader is signaled to exit and is replaced with the execing thread
as the new leader, however the parent is not notified in this case.
