pack: Address DT_UNKNOWN case for exotic filesystems.

In some filesystems, the d_type field in the dirent struct returned by
readdir(3) is not properly filled. According to readdir(3), "All applications
must properly handle a return of DT_UNKNOWN". This patch addresses the issue.

* gnu/packages/aux-files/run-in-namespace.c: Handle DT_UNKNOWN case.
