[Toybox] Recursive bind mounts.

Toybox mount is autodetecting --bind based on the types of source and dest
(mounting a file on a file or a directory on a directory is a bind mount), but
there's also --rbind which _recursively_ bind mounts. I.E. the bind mounts under
this directory are also bind mounted into the destination.
I THINK what I want to do is just:
@@ -184,7 +188,7 @@ static void mount_filesystem(char *dev, char *dir, char *type,
&& ((S_ISREG(stdev.st_mode) && S_ISREG(stdir.st_mode))
|| (S_ISDIR(stdev.st_mode) && S_ISDIR(stdir.st_mode))))
{
- flags |= MS_BIND;
+ flags |= MS_BIND|MS_REC;
} else fp = xfopen("/proc/filesystems", "r");
} else if (!strcmp(type, "ignore")) return;
else if (!strcmp(type, "swap"))
I.E. have the existing bind mount behavior automatically be recursive. But I
wanted to ask for a second opinion here. (I could also implement --rbind and
have it be different than --bind but nobody's come to me with this use case,
it's just me digging through container nonsense coming up with edge cases...)
