I did consider putting the `statfs` logic inside but ended up leaving it outside because `determine_type` is called by the `whitebox` framework, and "mocking" `statfs` is not possible with regular files.  The idea is to allow the test suite to simply mock the `statfs` result via the boolean `cgroups_v2_enabled` argument.

If we really must, I'd rather have a function pointer for the statfs call which we can replace in test code. It doesn't seem worth the extra complexity in my opinion though.
