lib, vtysh: support multiple VRFs by using linux netns
We realize VRFs with linux netns by default. The main job is to associate a VRF with a netns. Currently this is done by the configuration: [no] vrf N netns <netns-name> This command is also available in vtysh and goes to only zebra, because presently only zebra supports multiple VRF. A file descriptor is added to "struct vrf". This is for the associated netns file. Once the command "vrf N netns NAME" is executed, the specified file is opened and the file descriptor is stored in the VRF N. In this way the association is formed. In vrf_socket(), we first switch to the specified VRF by using the stored file descriptor, and then can allocate a socket which is working in the associated netns.
