procfs: Use the proc generic infrastructure for proc/self.
I had visions at one point of splitting proc into two filesystems. If that had happened proc/self being the the part of proc that actually deals with pids would have been a nice cleanup. As it is proc/self requires a lot of unnecessary infrastructure for a single file. The only user visible change is that a mounted /proc for a pid namespace that is dead now shows a broken proc symlink, instead of being completely invisible. I don't think anyone will notice or care.
