fix: validate Linux spec early to prevent nil dereference panics

[rishi-jat]

Description

Validate the OCI Linux spec early during container initialization and retrieval to prevent nil dereference panics caused by unsafe access to Spec.Linux.

This change establishes the Linux spec invariant once in:

• New()
• Get()

and returns an explicit error when the Linux section is missing.

Additionally, Exec() now guards access to Spec.Linux.Resources.Memory since Resources remains optional even when the Linux spec is present.
