Allow mounting of /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid

The CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE linux capability provides the ability to
update /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid. However, because this file is under
/proc, and by default both K8s and CRI-O specify that /proc/sys should
be mounted as Read-Only, by default even with the capability specified,
a process will not be able to write to ns_last_pid.

To get around this, a pod author can specify a volume mount and a
hostpath to bind-mount /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid. However, runc does
not allow specifying mounts under /proc.

This commit adds /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid to the validProcMounts
string array to enable a pod author to mount ns_last_pid as read-write.
The default remains unchanged; unless explicitly requested as a volume
mount, ns_last_pid will remain read-only regardless of whether or not
CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is specified.
