    ptrace: ban ptracing of a container init from inside the container
    
    Current ptrace engine suffers from strange problems, one of which
    is described in bug #1222 - init results in T state after incorrect
    tracer detach.
    
    Fixing it is not that easy, but since ptracing init was never alowed
    before it's OK to ban this (for a while?).
