[sos|options] Add global 'namespaces' option
Adds a global `--namespaces` option that can be used to limit the number of namespaces all plugins will iterate over. If a plugin provides a specific plugin option, such as the `networking.namespaces` option, then if set that plugin option will override the global option value. The global option defaults to not limiting namespaces, matching current behavior. Closes: #2092 Resolves: #2547 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>

+.B \--namespaces NAMESPACES
+For plugins that iterate collections over namespaces that exist on the system,
+for example the networking plugin collecting `ip` command output for each network
+namespace, use this option to limit the number of namespaces that will be collected.
+
+Use '0' (default) for no limit - all namespaces will be used for collections.
+
+Note that specific plugins may provide a similar `namespaces` plugin option. If
+the plugin option is used, it will override this option.
