I thought so too.

The thing is we need the fileystem type we're going to be tested on. I
can place this into src/feature.c if this can get access to the fstype
the test is going to be run on. It should be but if not we can do this
in src/idmapped-mounts/idmapped-mounts.c
directly to test whether the underlying fs we're being tested on
supports idmapped mounts and then return an error value from the binary
indicating that it doesn't so we can use _notrun.
I'll post an updated version of this today with the detection logic.
