linux: Return unsupported if procfs can not be mount on tst-ttyname-namespace
Trying to mount procfs can fail due multiples reasons: proc is locked
due the container configuration, mount syscall is filtered by a
Linux Secuirty Module, or any other security or hardening mechanism
that Linux might eventually add.

The tests does require a new procfs without binding to parent, and
to fully fix it would require to change how the container was created
(which is out of the scope of the test itself).  Instead of trying to
foresee any possible scenario, if procfs can not be mount fail with
unsupported.

Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu.
