linux-user: Ensure mmap_min_addr is non-zero
When the chroot does not have /proc mounted, we can read neither
/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr nor /proc/sys/maps.

The enforcement of mmap_min_addr in the host kernel is done by
the security module, and so does not apply to processes owned
by root.  Which leads pgd_find_hole_fallback to succeed in probing
a reservation at address 0.  Which confuses pgb_reserved_va to
believe that guest_base has not actually been initialized.

We don't actually want NULL addresses to become accessible, so
make sure that mmap_min_addr is initialized with a non-zero value.
