When reporting on 'record' server we try to retrieve/use
the mnt namespace of the profiled tasks. We use following
API with cookie to hold the return namespace, roughly:

  nsinfo__mountns_enter(struct nsinfo *nsi, struct nscookie *nc)
    setns(newns, 0);
  ...
  new ns related open..
  ...
  nsinfo__mountns_exit(struct nscookie *nc)
    setns(nc->oldns)

Once finished we setns to old namespace, which also sets the
current working directory (cwd) to "/", trashing the cwd we had.

This is mostly fine, because we use absolute paths almost everywhere,
but it screws up perf diff:

  # perf diff
  failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory  (try 'perf record' first)
  ...

Adding the current working directory to be part of the cookie
and restoring it in the nsinfo__mountns_exit call.
