This partly reverts 8f0807023d, bringing
back the umount(/sys) attempt.
In a LXC container we're unable to umount the sysfs instance, nor mount
a read-write one. We still are able to create a new read-only instance.
Nevertheless, it still makes sense to attempt the umount() even though
the sysfs is mounted read-only. Otherwise we may end up attempting to
mount a sysfs with the same flags as is already mounted, resulting in
an EBUSY error (meaning "Already mounted").
Perhaps this is not a very likely scenario in real world, but we hit
it in NetworkManager test suite and makes netns_switch() somewhat more
robust. It also fixes the case, when /sys wasn't mounted at all.

My previous patch 5950ba9 ("lib/namespace: don't leak fd in error case")
was a step in the wrong direction. Instead of closing the opened file
descriptor in error case only, follow a better approach here and close
the fd as soon as it is not used anymore. This way the inelegant goto
statements can be dropped, and the fd leak in non-error case is fixed as
well.

Prefer using the POSIX constant PATH_MAX instead of the legacy BSD
derived MAXPATHLEN. The necessary includes for MAXPATHLEN and PATH_MAX
are <sys/param.h> and <limits.h>, respectively.

New netns_switch func moved to the lib/namespace.c from ip/ipnetns.c
so it can be used from the other tools for fast switching
network namespace.
