Rewrite nd6_sysctl_{d,p}rlist() to avoid misaligned accesses to char arrays
casted to structs by getting rid of these buffers entirely. In r169832, it
was tried to paper over this issue by 32-bit aligning the buffers. Depending
on compiler optimizations that still was insufficient for 64-bit architectures
with strong alignment requirements though.
While at it, add comments regarding the total lack of locking in this area.
