Subject: [RFC 4/5 v4] procfs: Add hidenet/nohidenet procfs mount options.

This patch adds mount options to restrict access to /proc/PID/net/
contents.  The default backward-compatible behaviour is left untouched.

'hidenet' mount option means /proc/PID/net will be accessible to processes
with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability or to members of a special group (gid=
argument).

In current version hidenet works for CONFIG_NET_NS=y via creating a
"fake" net namespace and slipping it to nonauthorized users, resulting
in users observing blank net files (like nobody use the network, which
is true for this fake namespace).  It is a small compatibility
workaround for old programs assuming that files like /proc/net/tcp and
similar always exist and are accessible for all users.  If they look
like in normal situation but contain no information, nothing is broken
and network information access is still successfully restricted.  For
CONFIG_NET_NS=n /proc/net/* are unaccessible.
