Entering only the network NS would have a larger impact on the container
initialization code and we would still need to have iproute2/ifconfig
installed in the container... and nothing guarantees that will be true.
OTOH, we are pretty sure we'll have rtnetlink support in the kernel.

And if for some reason we don't have libnl at build time, the old code
using iproute2/ifconfig will still be used.

I went with a libnl implementation based on Laine's advise on IRC.
