Log:
  jail_getid(3): add special-case immediate return for jid 0
  
  As depicted in the comment: jid 0 always exists, but the lookup will fail as
  it does not appear in the kernel's alljails list being a special jail. Some
  callers will expect/rely on this, and we have no reason to lie because it
  does always exist.

  MFC after:    soon (regression, breaks inspecting jail host bits, partial
  revert)
