[PATCH 6/6 v1 resend] statfs: add ST_PRIVATE

Currently userspace can only determine whether a mountpoint is private
by parsing /proc/<pid>/mountinfo. It would be convenient to simply retrieve
this property with a statvfs() call.
This let's userspace avoid costly parsing, supports cases where /proc is
not mounted, and supports usecases where file descriptors to mountpoints are
passed between processes that are inspected via fstatvfs().
A mountpoint is considered ST_PRIVATE iff and it is neither ST_SLAVE nor
ST_SHARED.
