Track the parent container of a container to be able to filter and
report nesting.

Now that we have a way to track and check the parent container of a
container, modify the contid field format to be able to report that
nesting using a carrat ("^") separator to indicate nesting.  The
original field format was "contid=<contid>" for task-associated records
and "contid=<contid>[,<contid>[...]]" for network-namespace-associated
records.  The new field format is
"contid=<contid>[^<contid>[...]][,<contid>[...]]".
Let's make sure we always use a comma as a separator, even when
recording the parent information, for example:
"contid=<contid>[,^<contid>[...]][,<contid>[...]]"

If we need a forward declaration, might as well just move it up near
the top of the file with the rest of the declarations.

It seems safer to pass the audit container ID object and not the u64.

Do we really want to print (u64)-1 here?  Since this is a known
invalid number, would "?" be a better choice?
The established pattern is that we print -1 when its unset and "?" when its 
totalling missing. So, how could this be invalid? It should be set or not. 
That is unless its totally missing just like when we do not run with selinux 
enabled and a context just doesn't exist.
Ok, so in this case it is clearly unset, so should be -1, which will be a
20-digit number when represented as an unsigned long long int.

Thank you for that clarification Steve.

Why not just pull the code below into the body of this if statement?
It all needs to be done under the RCU read lock anyway and the code
would read much better this way.

In the interest of limiting the number of calls to audit_log_format(),
how about something like the following:

  audit_log_format("%llu", cont);
  iter = cont->parent;
  while (iter) {
    if (iter->parent)
      audit_log_format("^%llu,", iter);
    else
      audit_log_format("^%llu", iter);
    iter = iter->parent;
  }

This is an interesting case where contid and old-contid are going to
be largely the same, only the first (current) ID is going to be
different; do we want to duplicate all of those IDs?
