Disable MTU feedback in IPv6 if the sender writes data that must be fragmented.
Discussed extensively with KAME. The API author's intent isn't clear at this
point, so rather than remove the code entirely, #if 0 out and put a big
comment in for now. The IPV6_RECVPATHMTU sockopt is available if the
application wants to be notified of the path MTU to optimize packet sizes.
Thanks to JINMEI Tatuya <jinmei@isl.rdc.toshiba.co.jp> for putting up
with my incessant badgering on this issue, and fenner for pointing out
the API issue and suggesting solutions.
