Just a quick reaction.

- I would very much like to see a minimum of 3 levels of pids,
being supported. Otherwise it is easy to overlook some of the
cases that are required to properly support nesting, which long
terms seems important.

- Semantically fork is easier then unshare. Unshare can mean
a lot of things, and it is easy to pick a meaning that has weird
side effects. Your implementation has a serious problem in that you
change the value of getpid() at runtime. Glibc does not know how to
cope with the value of getpid() changing.
