Fix runc run "permission denied" when rootless

Since commit 957d97b was made to fix issue [7],
a few things happened:

- a similar functionality appeared in go 1.20 [1], so the issue
  mentioned in the comment (being removed) is no longer true;
- a bug in runc was found [2], which also affects go [3];
- the bug was fixed in go 1.21 [4] and 1.20.2 [5];
- a similar fix was made to x/sys/unix.Faccessat [6].

The essense of [2] is, even if a (non-root) user that the container is
run as does not have execute permission bit set for the executable, it
should still work in case runc has the CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE capability set.

To fix this [2] without reintroducing the older bug [7]:
- drop own Eaccess implementation;
- use the one from x/sys/unix for Go 1.19 (depends on [6]);
- do not use anything when Go 1.20+ is used.

NOTE it is virtually impossible to fix the bug [2] when Go 1.20 or Go
1.20.1 is used because of [3].

A test case is added by a separate commit.

Fixes: #3715.
