On invocation of `ifup` it will create the necessary directories under
`/etc/netns/` and an empty `/etc/netns/<namespace>/network/interfaces` file if
it doesn't already exist.
If it does and the interface is configured it will invoke `ifup` inside the
namespace.
On invocation of `ifup`:
* if the namespace doesn't exist it will be created
* if the folders `if-down.d`, `if-post-down.d`, `if-pre-up.d` and `if-up.d`
under `/etc/netns/<namespace>/network` don't exist, they will be created
* if the `/etc/netns/<namespace>/network/interfaces` file doesn't exist a
blank one will be created
* if it does and the interface is configured the the script will invoke `ifup`
for this interface inside the namespace.
