[PATCH v2 2/2] unshare: load binfmt_misc interpreter

[Laurent Vivier <laurent@vivier.eu>]

add -l, --load-interp <file> to load a binfmt_misc interpreter at startup.

The interpreter is loaded from the initial fileystem if the 'F' flags is
provided, otherwise from inside the new namespace
This makes possible to start a chroot of another architecture without
being root.

Signed-off-by: Laurent Vivier <laurent@vivier.eu>

Notes:
    v2:
      - use <binfmt_mnt>/register rather than _PATH_PROC_BINFMT_MISC_REGISTER
        to load the interpreter
