fix: reopen writable linux carveouts under denied parents (#14514)

## Summary
- preserve Linux bubblewrap semantics for `write -> none -> write`
filesystem policies by recreating masked mount targets before rebinding
narrower writable descendants
- add a Linux runtime regression for `/repo = write`, `/repo/a = none`,
`/repo/a/b = write` so the nested writable child is exercised under
bubblewrap
- document the supported legacy Landlock fallback and the split-policy
bubblewrap behavior for overlapping carveouts

## Example
Given a split filesystem policy like:

```toml
"/repo" = "write"
"/repo/a" = "none"
"/repo/a/b" = "write"
```

this PR keeps `/repo` writable, masks `/repo/a`, and still reopens
`/repo/a/b` as writable again under bubblewrap.

## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-linux-sandbox`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-linux-sandbox --tests -- -D warnings`

**Current Behavior**
- Legacy `SandboxPolicy` / `sandbox_mode` configs remain supported.
- Bubblewrap is the default filesystem sandbox pipeline and is standardized on
the vendored path.
- Legacy Landlock + mount protections remain available as an explicit legacy
fallback path.
- Set `features.use_legacy_landlock = true` (or CLI `-c use_legacy_landlock=true`)
to force the legacy Landlock fallback.
- The legacy Landlock fallback is used only when the split filesystem policy is
sandbox-equivalent to the legacy model after `cwd` resolution.
- Split-only filesystem policies that do not round-trip through the legacy
`SandboxPolicy` model stay on bubblewrap so nested read-only or denied
carveouts are preserved.
