mntns: use stable inode number for initial mount ns
Apart from the network and mount namespace all other namespaces expose a stable inode number and userspace has been relying on that for a very long time now. It's very much heavily used API. Align the mount namespace and use a stable inode number from the reserved procfs inode number space so this is consistent across all namespaces.
