[PATCH v2] fff-network: Improve IPv6 WAN connectivity

[Fabian Bläse]

Until now, IPv6 connectivity was only ensured by some custom sysctls.
OpenWrt has a proper way of enabling IPv6 client (SLAAC, as well as DHCPv6)
for an interface. Switching to OpenWrt's way of configuring client addresses
for an interface might also make configuration more reliable, as the appropriate
sysctls are now set by netifd. Especially OnePort and TwoPort devices will
benefit from this change, as IPv6 auto configuration does not have to be manually
enabled and disabled for a physical interface, but rather is set as an option for
our logical wan interface.

At the same time this change enables DHCPv6 client support for WAN.
