Introduce the FOR_EACH_NS_TYPE(X) macro as the single source of truth
for the set of (struct type, CLONE_NEW* flag) pairs that define Linux
namespace types.
Currently, the list of CLONE_NEW* flags is duplicated inline in
multiple call sites and would need another copy in each new consumer.
This makes it easy to miss one when a new namespace type is added.
Derive two things from the X-macro:
- CLONE_NS_ALL: Bitmask of all known CLONE_NEW* flags, usable as a
validity mask or iteration bound.
- ns_common_type(): Rewritten to use the X-macro via a leading-comma
_Generic pattern, so the struct-to-flag mapping stays in sync with the
flag set automatically.
Replace the inline flag enumerations in copy_namespaces(),
unshare_nsproxy_namespaces(), check_setns_flags(), and
ksys_unshare() with CLONE_NS_ALL.
When a new namespace type is added, only FOR_EACH_NS_TYPE needs to
be updated; CLONE_NS_ALL, ns_common_type(), and all the call sites
pick up the change automatically.

Note no effort is made to make sure structs embedding the namespace are
themselves aligned, so this is not guaranteed to eliminate cacheline
bouncing due to refcount management.
