[1/3] Remove tabs and fix spacing: ipv6 scripts

2016-10-12T12:29:30+00:00

The network-scripts are a mix of tabs and spaces (!!) as well as
completely inconsistent indentation (some 2, some 4).

This is a series of 3 patches to move the entire of network-scripts to
2-space indentation for consistency so I can develop on the codebase
without my brain bleeding. I don't feel strongly about 2 vs 4... 2 was
just most common in the first file I picked, so I used that.

This set is in 3 sets for easier reviewing and easier reverting if
necessary:

* 1/3 - ipv6 files
* 2/3 - network-functions - it needed it's own
* 3/3 - ifup/ifdown files

Allow someone to keep accept_ra on while using static addresses.

It's reasonable (and common) to assign static addresses while still
wanting to get your default gw from your router. The assumption that not
wanting SLAAC means not wanting RA is flawed, but I don't want to break
backwards compatability, so I'm adding an additional option.

Provide a mechanism to prevent network-scripts from messing with sysctls

2016-10-10T11:54:54+00:00

network-scripts makes odd assumptions, like if I don't want SLAAC (i.e.
if I turn off AUTOCONF) that I also don't want RA. This is not true,
it's common to have a static local address, but to get my gateway
through RA.

This is one solution. I will also be sending a more specific solution to
enable the above directly, but having a way to tell network-scripts
to not mess with systctls seems generally useful.

ipv6: wait for all global IPv6 addresses to leave the "tentative" state

ifup-ipv6: set accept_ra to 2 when IPV6FORWARDING=yes and IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
