Bug#815793: IPv6 code ignores unsolicited router advertisements

Can you please report this and also #815884 upstream? I don't know
much about IPv6 routing I'm afraid, so I think you are in a better
position to explain/discuss this with Tom. Some regressions are
already covered by https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2572
but not these  two.

In the meantime, I reverted the networkd handling of RA to go back to
the pre-229 behaviour.

Many thanks!

Martin
