[PATCH net-next v8 08/14] selftests/vsock: add namespace helpers to vmtest.sh

From: Bobby Eshleman <bobbyeshleman@meta.com>

Add functions for initializing namespaces with the different vsock NS
modes. Callers can use add_namespaces() and del_namespaces() to create
namespaces global0, global1, local0, and local1.

The init_namespaces() function initializes global0, local0, etc... with
their respective vsock NS mode. This function is separate so that tests
that depend on this initialization can use it, while other tests that
want to test the initialization interface itself can start with a clean
slate by omitting this call.

Remove namespaces upon exiting the program in cleanup(). This is
unlikely to be needed for a healthy run, but it is useful for tests that
are manually killed mid-test. In that case, this patch prevents the
subsequent test run from finding stale namespaces with
already-write-once-locked vsock ns modes.

This patch is in preparation for later namespace tests.
