Introduces the LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_IOCTL access right
and increments the Landlock ABI version to 5.

Like the truncate right, these rights are associated with a file
descriptor at the time of open(2), and get respected even when the
file descriptor is used outside of the thread which it was originally
opened in.

A newly enabled Landlock policy therefore does not apply to file
descriptors which are already open.

If the LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_IOCTL right is handled, only a small number
of safe IOCTL commands will be permitted on newly opened files.  The
permitted IOCTLs can be configured through the ruleset in limited ways
now.  (See documentation for details.)

Noteworthy scenarios which require special attention:

TTY devices support IOCTLs like TIOCSTI and TIOCLINUX, which can be
used to control shell processes on the same terminal which run at
different privilege levels, which may make it possible to escape a
sandbox.  Because stdin, stdout and stderr are normally inherited
rather than newly opened, IOCTLs are usually permitted on them even
after the Landlock policy is enforced.

Some legitimate file system features, like setting up fscrypt, are
exposed as IOCTL commands on regular files and directories -- users of
Landlock are advised to double check that the sandboxed process does
not need to invoke these IOCTLs.

Known limitations:

The LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_IOCTL access right is a coarse-grained control
over IOCTL commands.  Future work will enable a more fine-grained
access control for IOCTLs.

In the meantime, Landlock users may use path-based restrictions in
combination with their knowledge about the file system layout to
control what IOCTLs can be done.  Mounting file systems with the nodev
option can help to distinguish regular files and devices, and give
guarantees about the affected files, which Landlock alone can not give
yet.

Please move this LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_IOCTL_* block to fs.h

We can still create the public and private masks in limits.h but add a
static_assert() to make sure there is no overlap.

It would now be possible to add LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_IOCTL_GROUP* to a
rule, which is not part of the API/ABI. I've sent a patch with new tests
to make sure this is covered:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231120193914.441117-2-mic@digikod.net (local)

I'll push it in my -next branch if everything is OK before pushing your
next series. Please review it.
