Paul Meyer 3904661440 test: make boot mode work in unprivileged containers
In a mount namespace owned by a non-initial user namespace, the kernel
only allows mounting a fresh proc or sysfs if the namespace already
contains a fully visible mount of the same filesystem type
(mount_too_revealing()). systemd-nspawn's pivoted root contains no such
mount, so booting the test container inside an unprivileged container
(e.g. a containerized CI runner) fails with EPERM when mounting /proc.

When running in a non-initial user namespace, satisfy the check by
binding a read-only instance of each into the container under /work.
Skipping the binds on regular privileged runs keeps the container
isolated from the host's proc and sysfs. Binding non-recursively keeps
foreign submounts (e.g. lxcfs overmounts) out, which would spoil full
visibility where they end up locked, and which read-only would not
cover.
