Will fix.

We can make writing gid_map fail unless you either have permissions or
add the "setgroups disallow" option. Would that be better? It avoids
silent creation of a strangely behaving userns. This would be an easy
adjustment to this patch.
I don't like the "allow setgroups if there are no supplementary
groups" because it's weird and unexpected (and will therefore break
things, I expect) and because it may interact insecurely with setns
and other such things.
