Thomas Haller 761aac737e ipv6 addrconf: add IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE flag to suppress creation of IP6 routes
When adding/modifying an IPv6 address, the userspace application needs
a way to suppress adding a prefix route. This is for example relevant
together with IFA_F_MANAGERTEMPADDR, where userspace creates autoconf
generated addresses, but depending on on-link, no route for the
prefix should be added.

* Important comment:
* IFA_ADDRESS is prefix address, rather than local interface address.
* It makes no difference for normally configured broadcast interfaces,
* but for point-to-point IFA_ADDRESS is DESTINATION address,
* local address is supplied in IFA_LOCAL attribute.
*
* IFA_FLAGS is a u32 attribute that extends the u8 field ifa_flags.
* If present, the value from struct ifaddrmsg will be ignored.
