[ipv6] Perform SLAAC only during autoconfiguration 

We currently perform IPv6 stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC)
in response to any router advertisement with the relevant flags set.
This can result in the local IPv6 source address changing midway
through a TCP connection, since our connections bind only to a local
port number and do not store a local network address.

In addition, this behaviour for SLAAC is inconsistent with that for
DHCPv4 and stateful DHCPv6, both of which will be performed only as a
result of an explicit autoconfiguration action (e.g. via the default
autoboot sequence, or the "ifconf" command).

Fix by ignoring router advertisements arriving outside the context of
an ongoing autoconfiguration attempt.
