selftests/bpf: Use if_nametoindex instead of reading the /sys/net/class/*/ifindex



When switching netns, the setns_by_fd() is doing dances in mount/umounting
the /sys directories.  One reason is the tc_redirect.c test is depending
on the /sys/net/class/*/ifindex instead of using the if_nametoindex().
if_nametoindex() uses ioctl() to get the ifindex.

This patch is to move all /sys/net/class/*/ifindex usages to
if_nametoindex().  The current code checks ifindex >= 0 which is
incorrect.  ifindex > 0 should be checked instead.  This patch also
stores ifindex_veth_src and ifindex_veth_dst since the latter patch
will need them.
