Preallocate host kernel FD table before Sentry boot.

This avoids an expensive RCU stall during the Sentry boot process, when
the Linux-side FD table needs to be expanded to accommodate the Sentry's
512-sized FD table.

The kernel imposes an RCU stall when this occurs for
multithreaded programs (which all Go programs are), but not
single-threaded ones. Hence the introduction of a minimal C binary that
does the magic. There is some storytime explanation in the C source
file itself.

Even though this is an extra `exec` in the hot startup path, the
benefits are obvious:

```
runsc do /bin/true:
          │       A (baseline)       │           B (prewarmer)           │
  RunscDo             202.8m ± 3%        147.1m ± 5%  -27.45% (n=100)

docker run --rm alpine true:
                   │   A (baseline)   │        B (prewarmer)              │
  DockerRunStartup     778.9m ± 2%      738.0m ± 2%  -5.25% (p=0.000 n=100)

OCi operations ("total" = create + start + wait + delete):
            │  A (baseline)  │        B (prewarmer)               │
  OCICreate    145.6m ± 5%     102.3m ± 8%  -29.71% (n=100)
  OCIReady     165.8m ± 4%     122.6m ± 6%  -26.10% (n=100)
  OCITotal     178.6m ± 3%     138.3m ± 5%  -22.59% (n=100)
```

I also reduced the Sentry's FD table to 256 rather than 512, which saves
one or two pages of host kernel memory per sandbox instance.

Also threw in a test to make sure the C program remains
single-page-sized to avoid potential unintended bloating down the line.
