netns: ipmr: declare counter cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace
Preliminary work to make IPv4 multicast routing netns-aware.

Declare variable cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace: move it into
struct netns_ipv4.

This variable counts the number of unresolved cache entries queued in the
list mfc_unres_queue. This list is kept global to all netns as the number
of entries per namespace is limited to 10 (hardcoded in routine
ipmr_cache_unresolved).
Entries belonging to different namespaces in mfc_unres_queue will be
identified by matching the mfc_net member introduced previously in
struct mfc_cache.

Keeping this list global to all netns, also allows us to keep a single
timer (ipmr_expire_timer) to handle their expiration.
In some places cache_resolve_queue_len value was tested for arming
or deleting the timer. These tests were equivalent to testing
mfc_unres_queue value instead and are replaced in this patch.

At the moment, cache_resolve_queue_len is only referenced in init_net.
