pasta: Add fallback timer mechanism to check if namespace is gone

We don't know how frequently this happens, but hitting
fs.inotify.max_user_watches or similar sysctl limits is definitely
not out of question, and Paul mentioned that, for example, Podman's
CI environments hit similar issues in the past.

Introduce a fallback mechanism based on a timer file descriptor: we
grab the directory handle at startup, and we can then use openat(),
triggered periodically, to check if the (network) namespace directory
still exists. If openat() fails at some point, exit.
