When loop.Loop() is called and a new loop device must be allocated
there is no gurantee that the correct device node is available on
the system. In containers /dev is often just a tmpfs with static
device nodes. So when /dev/loopN is not available when the
container is created the device node will be missing even if
`get_unbound()` create a new loop device for us.
This commit ensures that the device node is available. It creates
it unconditionally and ignores any EEXIST errors to ensure there
is no TOCTOU issue.
Note that the test could have passed a `Loop(dir_fd=open(tmpdir))`
instead of creating/patching loop.DEV_PATH but it seems slightly
nicer to test the flow without a custom dir_path as this is what
the real code that creates a loop device is also using.
