selftests/landlock: Drain stale audit records on init

Non-audit Landlock tests generate audit records as side effects when
audit_enabled is non-zero (e.g. from boot configuration).  These records
accumulate in the kernel audit backlog while no audit daemon socket is
open.  When the next test opens a new netlink socket and registers as
the audit daemon, the stale backlog is delivered, causing baseline
record count checks to fail spuriously.

Fix this by draining all pending records in audit_init() right after
setting the receive timeout.  The 1-usec SO_RCVTIMEO causes audit_recv()
to return -EAGAIN once the backlog is empty, naturally terminating the
drain loop.

Domain deallocation records are emitted asynchronously from a work
queue, so they may still arrive after the drain.  Remove records.domain
== 0 checks that are not preceded by audit_match_record() calls, which
would otherwise consume stale records before the count.  Document this
constraint above audit_count_records().

Increasing the drain timeout to catch in-flight deallocation records was
considered but rejected: a longer timeout adds latency to every
audit_init() call even when no stale record is pending, and any fixed
timeout is still not guaranteed to catch all records under load.
Removing the unprotected checks is simpler and avoids the spurious
failures.
