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.

'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.
