Add new CONFIG_IMA_NS config option.  Let clone() create a new IMA
namespace upon CLONE_NEWNS flag. Add ima_ns data structure in nsproxy.
ima_ns is allocated and freed upon IMA namespace creation and exit.
Currently, the ima_ns contains no useful IMA data but only a dummy
interface. This patch creates the framework for namespacing the different
aspects of IMA (eg. IMA-audit, IMA-measurement, IMA-appraisal).

Changelog:
* Use CLONE_NEWNS instead of a new CLONE_NEWIMA flag
Hi,

So this means that every mount namespace clone will clone a new IMA
namespace.  Is that really ok?
