With the rise of cloud native, more and more container applications are
deployed. The network namespace is one of the foundations of the container.
The sysctls of error_cost and error_burst are important knobs to control
the sending frequency of ICMP_DEST_UNREACH packet for ipv4. When different
containers has requirements on the tuning of error_cost and error_burst,
for host's security, the sysctls should exist per network namespace.

Different netns has different requirements on the setting of error_cost
and error_burst, which are related with limiting the frequency of sending
ICMP_DEST_UNREACH packets. Enable them to be configured per netns.

you did not respond to the IPv6 question Jakub asked.

I think it is legacy for IPv4 since it pre-dates the move to git and
just never added to IPv6. But, if it is important enough for this to
move to per container then it should be important enough to add for IPv6
too.
