Rust binder resolved handle 0 to the context manager node, but it does not
reject the case where the caller owns the same node.

The C binder driver rejects transactions from the context-manager process
to handle 0 after resolving the target node. Match that behavior in Rust
Binder by rejecting handle 0 transactions when the resolved context-manager
node is owned by the calling process.

This applies to both synchronous and oneway transactions because both paths
resolve the target through Process::get_transaction_node().
