Some of the future fields in struct pidfd_info can be optional. If the kernel has nothing to emit in that field, then it doesn't set the flag in the reply. This presents a problem: There is currently no way to know what mask flags the kernel supports since one can't always count on them being in the reply. Add a new PIDFD_INFO_SUPPORTED_MASK flag and field that the kernel can set in the reply. Userspace can use this to determine if the fields it requires from the kernel are supported. This also gives us a way to deprecate fields in the future, if that should become necessary.
