allow unshare as root user

- this is useful when you are already root and want the benefits of
   unsharing the mount namespace to prevent messing up your system
 - if the unshare mode is used as root, the user namespace is not unshared
   anymore and newuidmap, setuid and friends are not called anymore
 - if the unshare mode is used as non-root test if the user namespace can be
   unshared, otherwise test if the mount namespace can be unshared

If this mode is used as the root user, the user namespace is not unshared (but
the mount namespace and other still are) and created directories will have
correct ownership information. This is also useful in cases where the root user
wants the benefits of an unshared mount namespace to prevent accidentally
messing up the system.
