This change adds helpers for creating and preserving various
namespaces and running functions inside them.
This appeared useful while implementing ve mount accounting
selftests - it required keeping mount namespace alive and
doing different things at different moments of time.

To make setns work with CLONE_NEWVE without starting VE,
the last patch changes -EINVAL return to warning message.
