Key changes:
1. Use features=0 in the initial UFFDIO_API call to query supported
feature bits, rather than immediately requesting WP support.
2. Skip the test gracefully if:
- UFFDIO_API fails with EINVAL (e.g. unsupported API version), or
- UFFD_FEATURE_PAGEFAULT_FLAG_WP is not advertised by the kernel.
3. Close the initial userfaultfd and create a new one before enabling
the required feature, since UFFDIO_API can only be called once per fd.
4. Improve diagnostics by distinguishing between expected and unexpected
failures, using strerror() to report errors.
This ensures the test behaves correctly across a wider range of kernel
versions and configurations, while preserving the intended behavior on
kernels that support UFFD-WP.

Skimming over this once again ... sorry.
Nit:
"Suggested-by:"
Likely Andrew can fix it up ... if the patch is not upstream yet (did
not check).
