Subject: [RFC][PATCH 3/6][v3] Define/set SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE_FROM_NS

Define and set the SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE_FROM_NS flags for container-inits.
This flag will be used in follow-on patches to ignore/drop fatal sigals
to container-init from within the container but process the signals from
an ancestor container.

Based on discussions on earlier version of this patchset:
