[git pull] regression fix for mount propagation in detached trees

[git pull] regression fix for mount propagation in detached trees

[Al Viro]

6.15 allowed mount propagation to destinations in detached trees;
unfortunately, that breaks existing userland, so the old behaviour
needs to be restored.

It's not exactly a revert - original behaviour had a bug, where existence
of detached tree might disrupt propagation between locations not in
detached trees.  Thankfully, userland did not upon that bug, so we
want to keep the fix.

The following changes since commit d1ddc6f1d9f0cf887834eb54a5a68bbfeec1bb77:
