landlock: Allow FS topology changes for domains without such rule type
Allow mount point and root directory changes when there is no filesystem rule tied to the current Landlock domain. This doesn't change anything for now because a domain must have at least a (filesystem) rule, but this will change when other rule types will come. For instance, a domain only restricting the network should have no impact on filesystem restrictions. Add a new get_current_fs_domain() helper to quickly check filesystem rule existence for all filesystem LSM hooks. Remove unnecessary inlining.

Filesystem topology modification
--------------------------------
-As for file renaming and linking, a sandboxed thread cannot modify its
-filesystem topology, whether via :manpage:`mount(2)` or
-:manpage:`pivot_root(2)`. However, :manpage:`chroot(2)` calls are not denied.
