Subject: [PATCH RFC] fhandle: expose u64 mount id to name_to_handle_at(2)

Now that we have stabilised the unique 64-bit mount ID interface in
statx, we can now provide a race-free way for name_to_handle_at(2) to
provide a file handle and corresponding mount without needing to worry
about racing with /proc/mountinfo parsing.

As with AT_HANDLE_FID, AT_HANDLE_UNIQUE_MNT_ID reuses a statx AT_* bit
that doesn't make sense for name_to_handle_at(2).
