attach in linux hangs due to permission denied accessing /proc/pid/root

Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8226919

 The attach API uses /proc/pid/root in order to support containers.
 Dereferencing this symlink is governed by ptrace access mode PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS
 which may not succeed when running as the user running the JRE.
 This breaks running jcmd and jmap as the same user the JVM is running as.
 Use tmpdir when pid matches ns_pid.
