This is an additional mitigation for CVE-2019-16884. The primary problem
is that Docker can be coerced into bind-mounting a file system on top of
/proc (resulting in label-related writes to /proc no longer happening).
While we are working on mitigations against permitting the mounts, this
helps avoid our code from being tricked into writing to non-procfs
files. This is not a perfect solution (after all, there might be a
bind-mount of a different procfs file over the target) but in order to
exploit that you would need to be able to tweak a config.json pretty
specifically (which thankfully Docker doesn't allow).
Specifically this stops AppArmor from not labeling a process silently
due to /proc/self/attr/... being incorrectly set, and stops any
accidental fd leaks because /proc/self/fd/... is not real.

Since syscall is outdated and broken for some architectures,
use x/sys/unix instead.
There are still some dependencies on the syscall package that will
remain in syscall for the forseeable future:
Errno
Signal
SysProcAttr
Additionally:
- os still uses syscall, so it needs to be kept for anything
returning *os.ProcessState, such as process.Wait.
