Users have reported a regression due to ip now dropping capabilities
unconditionally.
zerotier-one VPN and VirtualBox use ambient capabilities in their
binary and then fork out to ip to set routes and links, and this
does not work anymore.
As a workaround, do not drop caps if CAP_NET_ADMIN (the most common
capability used by ip) is set with the INHERITABLE flag.
Users that want ip vrf exec to work do not need to set INHERITABLE,
which will then only set when the calling program had privileges to
give itself the ambient capability.

The commit calls a new tc ematch for using netfilter xtable matches.
This allows early classification as well as mirroning/redirecting traffic
based on logic implemented in netfilter extensions.
Current supported use case is classification based on the incoming IPSec
state used during decpsulation using the 'policy' iptables extension
(xt_policy).
The matcher uses libxtables for parsing the input parameters.
Example use for matching an IPSec state with reqid 1:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress
tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent ffff: \
basic match 'ipt(-m policy --dir in --pol ipsec --reqid 1)' \
action drop

For IP-in-IP tunnels, one can specify the [no]allow-localremote command
when configuring a device. Under the hood, this flips the
IP6_TNL_F_ALLOW_LOCAL_REMOTE flag on the netdevice. However, ip6gretap
and ip6erspan devices, where the flag is also relevant, are not IP-in-IP
tunnels, and thus there's no way to configure the flag on these
netdevices. Therefore introduce the command to link_gre6 as well.

If the kernel receives a negative nsid it will automatically assign
the next available nsid. In this case alloc_netid() will set min and
max to 0 for ird_alloc(). And when max == 0 idr_alloc() will interpret
this as the maximum range, i.e. specific to nsids it will try to find
an id in the range [0,INT_MAX). This is intentionally supported in the
kernel for nsids.
Commit acbe9118ce ("ip netns: use strtol() instead of atoi()")
regressed ip netns in that respect although previously the use-case
was either accidentally supported or opaquely supported such that it
triggered the original commit. From what I can gather it went as
follows before: atoi() was called with a string indicating a negative
value which caused it to return -1 which was passed to the
kernel. Let's make it less opaque by introducing the keyword "auto":
ip netns set <netns-name> auto
will cause nsid to be set to -1 and the kernel will select an available
nsid.
