Piss-poor sysctl registration API strikes again, film at 11...

What we really need is _pathname_ required to be present in already
registered table, so that kernel could warn about bad order.  That's the
next target for sysctl stuff (and generally saner and more explicit
order of initialization of ipv[46] internals wouldn't hurt either).

For the time being, here are full fixups required by ..._rotable()
stuff; we make per-net sysctl sets descendents of "ro" one and make sure
that sufficient skeleton is there before we start registering per-net
sysctls.

New object: set of sysctls [currently - root and per-net-ns].
Contains: pointer to parent set, list of tables and "should I see this set?"
method (->is_seen(set)).
Current lists of tables are subsumed by that; net-ns contains such a beast.
->lookup() for ctl_table_root returns pointer to ctl_table_set instead of
that to ->list of that ctl_table_set.

[folded compile fixes by rdd for configs without sysctl]

Extend the permission check for networking sysctl's to allow modification
when current process has CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and is not root.  This
version uses the until now unused permissions hook to override the mode
value for /proc/sys/net if accessed by a user with capabilities.

Found while working with Quagga.  It is impossible to turn forwarding
on/off through the command interface because Quagga uses secure coding
practice of dropping privledges during initialization and only raising via
capabilities when necessary.  Since the dameon has reset real/effective
uid after initialization, all attempts to access /proc/sys/net variables
will fail.

This one stores all ctl-heads in one list and restricts the
permissions not give write access to non-init net namespaces.

I have removed all the entries from this table (core_table,
ipv4_table and tr_table), so now we can safely drop it.

The same thing for token-ring - use ctl paths and get
rid of external references on the tr_table.

Unfortunately, I couldn't split this patch into cleanup and
use-the-paths parts.

As a lame excuse I can say, that the cleanup is just moving
the tr_table from one file to another - closet to a single
variable, that this ctl table tunes. Since the source  file
becomes empty after the move, I remove it.

This is the same as I did for the net/core/ table in the
second patch in his series: use the paths and isolate the
whole table in the .c file.
