Check that a successful landlock_restrict_self(2) call with LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_NO_NEW_PRIVS sets no_new_privs without a prior prctl(2) call nor CAP_SYS_ADMIN, that a failed call from both an invalid ruleset and hitting the layer maximum leaves the attribute unchanged, and that LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_TSYNC extends it to sibling threads. Also check that this flag requires a ruleset, and update the restrict_self_checks_ordering EPERM checks since this flag is now checked before the flags validity. Finally, rename restrict_self_fd_logging_flags to restrict_self_fd_flags, and restrict_self_logging_flags to restrict_self_flags to indicate that non-logging flags are now tested. Update the ABI version and last-flag checks accordingly.
