selftests/landlock: Add capability restriction tests

This commit adds tests to exercise LANDLOCK_PERMISSION_CAPABILITY_USE
enforcement. It covers stacking combinations, non-standard capability
contexts, and audit and trace scenarios.

[Severity: Low]
Does this code read uninitialized stack memory in TEST_F(cap_audit, denied)
if audit_count_records() fails?

The records structure is declared on the stack without initialization.
If audit_count_records() returns early with an error, for instance if
regcomp() fails with -ENOMEM in tools/testing/selftests/landlock/audit.h,
records.access and records.domain will remain uninitialized.

Because EXPECT_EQ() does not abort test execution upon failure like
ASSERT_EQ() would, the test will continue and evaluate the uninitialized
records.access and records.domain fields.

Consider either zero-initializing the records struct upon declaration,
or replacing EXPECT_EQ with ASSERT_EQ for the audit_count_records() call.
