mount: clone a mount namespace to open a detached mount

If we can't create a temporary directory for a detached mount, we can clone a whole mount namespace, open a mount and release the created namespace. The result will be the same. https://jira.sw.ru/browse/PSBM-57135 opencontainers/runc#1202 Signed-off-by: Andrei Vagin <[email protected]>
