- Make the code more proactively clear an ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED flag when

  an explicit action for INET6 configuration happens.  The changes are:

  1. When an ND6 flag is changed via SIOCSIFINFO_FLAGS ioctl,
     setting ND6_IFF_ACCEPT_RTADV and/or ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL now triggers
     an attempt to clear the ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED flag.

  2. When an AF_INET6 address is added successfully to an interface and
     it is marked as ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED, an attempt to clear the
     ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED happens.

  This simplifies ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED flag manipulation by users via ifconfig(8);
  in most cases the manual configuration is no longer needed.

- When ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL is set and no link-local address is assigned to
  an interface, SIOCSIFINFO_FLAGS ioctl now calls in6_ifattach() to configure
  a link-local address.

  This change ensures link-local address configuration when "ifconfig IF inet6"
  command is invoked.  For example, "ifconfig IF inet6 auto_linklocal" now
  always try to configure an LL addr even if ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL is already
  set to 1 (i.e. down/up cycle is no longer needed).
