c/r: prctl: add ability to set new mm_struct::exe_file

When we do restore we would like to have a way to setup a former
mm_struct::exe_file so that /proc/pid/exe would point to the original
executable file a process had at checkpoint time.

For this the PR_SET_MM_EXE_FILE code is introduced.  This option takes a
file descriptor which will be set as a source for new /proc/$pid/exe
symlink.

Note it allows to change /proc/$pid/exe if there are no VM_EXECUTABLE
vmas present for current process, simply because this feature is a special
to C/R and mm::num_exe_file_vmas become meaningless after that.

To minimize the amount of transition the /proc/pid/exe symlink might have,
this feature is implemented in one-shot manner.  Thus once changed the
symlink can't be changed again.  This should help sysadmins to monitor the
symlinks over all process running in a system.

In particular one could make a snapshot of processes and ring alarm if
there unexpected changes of /proc/pid/exe's in a system.

Note -- this feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set and
the caller must have CAP_SYS_RESOURCE capability granted, otherwise the
request to change symlink will be rejected.
