proc: proper pidns handling for /proc/self

Currently if you access a /proc that is not mounted with your processes
current pid namespace /proc/self will point at a completely random task.

This patch fixes /proc/self to point to the current process if it is
available in the particular mount of /proc or to return -ENOENT if the
current process is not visible.
