Subject: [RFC iproute2] netns: add mounting state file for each netns

When ip creates a netns, there is a small time interval between the
placeholder file creation in NETNS_RUN_DIR and the bind mount from /proc.

Add a temporary file named .mounting-$netns which gets deleted after the
bind mount, so watching for delete event matching the .mounting-* name
will notify watchers only after the bind mount has been done.
