nsfs: tighten permission checks for ns iteration ioctls
[ Upstream commit e6b899f08066e744f89df16ceb782e06868bd148 ] Even privileged services should not necessarily be able to see other privileged service's namespaces so they can't leak information to each other. Use may_see_all_namespaces() helper that centralizes this policy until the nstree adapts.
