net: Allow userns root to control tun and tap devices
Allow an unpriviled user who has created a user namespace, and then
created a network namespace to effectively use the new network
namespace, by reducing capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) calls to
ns_capable(net->user_ns,CAP_NET_ADMIN) calls.
Allow setting of the tun iff flags.
Allow creating of tun devices.
Allow adding a new queue to a tun device.
