add unique mount ID

If a mount is released then its mnt_id can immediately be reused.  This is
bad news for user interfaces that want to uniquely identify a mount.

Implementing a unique mount ID is trivial (use a 64bit counter).
Unfortunately userspace assumes 32bit size and would overflow after the
counter reaches 2^32.

Introduce a new 64bit ID alongside the old one.  Initialize the counter to
2^32, this guarantees that the old and new IDs are never mixed up.
