When unix.Rename() fails with EBUSY while replacing the merged directory mountpoint, fall back to removing both directories and creating a fresh mountpoint directory. This could happen if the mount leaked in some mount namespace.
This addresses cases where the target mountpoint is busy and cannot be atomically replaced, providing a workaround for the rename approach introduced in commit d9ec6b5.
It reintroduces in part the issue fixed by that commit but the window of opportunity is much smaller, as it needs #skip_mount_home and the mount leaked via a recursive mount from the host into another container.
