fuse: allow server to run in different pid_ns

Commit 0b6e9ea041e6 ("fuse: Add support for pid namespaces") broke
Sandstorm.io development tools, which have been sending FUSE file
descriptors across PID namespace boundaries since early 2014.

The above patch added a check that prevented I/O on the fuse device file
descriptor if the pid namespace of the reader/writer was different from the
pid namespace of the mounter.  With this change passing the device file
descriptor to a different pid namespace simply doesn't work.  The check was
added because pids are transferred to/from the fuse userspace server in the
namespace registered at mount time.

To fix this regression, remove the checks and do the following:

1) the pid in the request header (the pid of the task that initiated the
filesystem operation) is translated to the reader's pid namespace.  If a
mapping doesn't exist for this pid, then a zero pid is used.  Note: even if
a mapping would exist between the initiator task's pid namespace and the
reader's pid namespace the pid will be zero if either mapping from
initator's to mounter's namespace or mapping from mounter's to reader's
namespace doesn't exist.

2) The lk.pid value in setlk/setlkw requests and getlk reply is left alone.
Userspace should not interpret this value anyway.  Also allow the
setlk/setlkw operations if the pid of the task cannot be represented in the
mounter's namespace (pid being zero in that case).
