The "dmz" name was originally used because the libcontainer/dmz package
housed the runc-dmz binary, but since we removed it in commit
871057d("drop runc-dmz solution according to overlay solution")
the name is an anachronism and we should just give it a more
self-explanatory name.

So, call it libcontainer/exeseal because the purpose of the package is
to provide tools to seal /proc/self/exe against attackers.

Closes #4516
