[LXC] Add functions to manage veth device pairs

This gives us the ability to create a veth pair so that we can move one
into the network namespace of an LXC container.

You can perhaps, use do { ... } while () here.

Is this function safe for concurrent access ? eg. getFreeVethName called in parallel by two processes or another process creates a pair device just after you exit the loop ?

No need of the veth1MaxLen parameter, you already have it, it is IF_NAMESIZE.

Why do you check with strlen > 1 ?

You don't need to copy the string, a const char *upOrDownString and upOrDownString = "down" will work.

Why don't you just do:

char pidstr[PIDSTRLEN];
const char *argv[] = { "ip", "link", "set", interface, "netns", pidstr, NULL };
snprintf(pidstr, PIDSTRLEN, "%d", pidInNs);

That should work, no ?
