Add file_ns_capable() helper function for open-time capability checking

commit 935d8aabd4331f47a89c3e1daa5779d23cf244ee upstream.

Nothing is using it yet, but this will allow us to delay the open-time
checks to use time, without breaking the normal UNIX permission
semantics where permissions are determined by the opener (and the file
descriptor can then be passed to a different process, or the process can
drop capabilities).
