ipv6: reject locally assigned nexthop addresses
ip -6 addr add dead::1/128 dev eth0 sleep 5 ip -6 route add default via dead::1/128 -> fails ip -6 addr add dead::1/128 dev eth0 ip -6 route add default via dead::1/128 -> succeeds reason is that if (nonsensensical) route above is added, dead::1 is still subject to DAD, so the route lookup will pick eth0 as outdev due to the prefix route that is added before DAD work is started. Add explicit test that checks if nexthop gateway is a local address.
