I wouldn't mind sending my other patches (and I will of course), but do
note that they are each adding different features so I'll need to
write a description for each. It's something I'm still working on.

here's a short summary of my other patches :

* add support for naming both veth devices when creating them (currently
  you can only name the first one)

* add --bounding-set support to the setpriv applet
--bounding-set <caps>       set capability bounding set

* add uid and gid maps to the unshare applet.
        -S, --setuid <uid>        set uid in entered namespace
        -G, --setgid <gid>        set gid in entered namespace
        (this is a feature present in the newer util-linux and
        it is very nice)

* add root (chroot) support to the unshare applet.
        -R, --root=<dir>          run the command with root
        directory set to <dir>

Btw, I said I tested these new features extensively
which is true but do note that I done so with busybox version 1.31.1. I
haven't really tested them with the bleeding edge busybox yet (although I
merged them in the bleeding edge and they compiled fine).
