    ve/net/core: allow to call setsockopt(SO_RCVBUFFORCE) from Containers
    
    "nft" util (in CentOS 8 environment) does use setsockopt(SO_RCVBUFFORCE)
    unconditionally, so we have to allow it from inside a Container.
    
    At the same time we don't want to allow a Container to set too much
    memory for a socket, so just threat SO_RCVBUFFORCE like SO_RCVBUF if
    called inside a Container.
    
    Simple rule to test:
    
      # NFT=/usr/sbin/nft ./run-tests.sh -v -g testcases/nft-f/0011manydefines_0
    
    which fails inside a Container because of not enough rcb buffer because
    of failed
      setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVBUFFORCE, [10561584], 4) = -1
      EPERM (Operation not permitted)
