exec: Convert security_bprm_set_creds into security_bprm_repopulate_creds
Rename bprm->cap_elevated to bprm->active_secureexec and initialize it in prepare_binprm instead of in cap_bprm_set_creds. Initializing bprm->active_secureexec in prepare_binprm allows multiple implementations of security_bprm_repopulate_creds to play nicely with each other. Rename security_bprm_set_creds to security_bprm_reopulate_creds to emphasize that this path recomputes part of bprm->cred. This recomputation avoids the time of check vs time of use problems that are inherent in unix #! interpreters. In short two renames and a move in the location of initializing bprm->active_secureexec.
