Casey Callendrello a0eac8d7d9 pkg/ns: remove namespace creation (and move to testutils)

Namespace creation had an unergonomic interface and isn't used, except
for testing code. Remove it; downstream users should really be creating
their own namespaces

tuning plugin

Overview

This plugin can change some system controls (sysctls) in the network namespace. It does not create any network interfaces and therefore does not bring connectivity by itself. It is only useful when used in addition to other plugins.

Operation

The following network configuration file

{
  "name": "mytuning",
  "type": "tuning",
  "sysctl": {
          "net.core.somaxconn": "500"
  }
}

will set /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn to 500. Other sysctls can be modified as long as they belong to the network namespace (/proc/sys/net/*).

A successful result would simply be:

{ }

Network sysctls documentation

Some network sysctls are documented in the Linux sources:
