This documents a way to safely use new security-related system calls

Admittedly, it is somewhat hackish, but it can be implemented by
userspace today, for existing system calls such as faccessat2,
without kernel or container runtime changes.
I think this is completely insane.  Tell the OCI folks to fix their
completely broken specification instead.
