Fix this by not unregistering the conntrack extension in the per-netns
cleanup code.

In preparation for supporting the creation of network namespaces
by unprivileged users, modify all of the per net sysctl exports
and refuse to allow them to unprivileged users.

This makes it safe for unprivileged users in general to access
per net sysctls, and allows sysctls to be exported to unprivileged
users on an individual basis as they are deemed safe.

This results in code with less boiler plate that is a bit easier
to read.

Additionally stops us from using compatibility code in the sysctl
core, hastening the day when the compatibility code can be removed.

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.

It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

(Thanks to Joe Perches for suggesting coccinelle for 0/1 -> true/false).

This patch adds flow-based timestamping for conntracks. This
conntrack extension is disabled by default. Basically, we use
two 64-bits variables to store the creation timestamp once the
conntrack has been confirmed and the other to store the deletion
time. This extension is disabled by default, to enable it, you
have to:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_timestamp

This patch allows to save memory for user-space flow-based
loogers such as ulogd2. In short, ulogd2 does not need to
keep a hashtable with the conntrack in user-space to know
when they were created and destroyed, instead we use the
kernel timestamp. If we want to have a sane IPFIX implementation
in user-space, this nanosecs resolution timestamps are also
useful. Other custom user-space applications can benefit from
this via libnetfilter_conntrack.

This patch modifies the /proc output to display the delta time
in seconds since the flow start. You can also obtain the
flow-start date by means of the conntrack-tools.
