Subject: [PATCH 1/5] The config option itself

The option is called NAMESPACES. It can be selectable only
if EMBEDDED is chosen (this was Eric's requisition). When
the EMBEDDED is off namespaces will be on automatically.

One more option (NAMESPACES_EXPERIMENTAL) was added by 
Serge's request to move there all the namespaces that are 
not finished yet. Currently only the user and the network
namespaces are such. This option is selectable all the
time NAMESPACES are "y" regardless of EMBEDDED one.
