Setting the MTU for loopback has a huge performance impact on intra-container
traffic. The loopback interface is not an ethernet interface and does not need
the same limit. with this change I see a 4x speedup for loopback throughput.

2. Introducing a new checkpoint file 'network.stats' which will contain the network runtime information (veth interface names for now).
3. Adding network stats to 'nsinit stats'.
4. Added a libcontainer Stats API to get both network and cgroup stats

'namespaces' need to refactored a bit more to move the API part of it to 'libcontainer' package and keep the namespace specific code inside that package.
This change is not expected to break docker.

It seems that netlink in older kernels, including RHEL6, does not
support RTM_SETLINK with IFLA_MASTER. It just silently ignores it, reporting
no error, causing netlink.NetworkSetMaster() to not do anything yet
return no error.
We fix this by introducing and using AddToBridge() in a very similar manner
to CreateBridge(), which use the old ioctls directly.
