ip: ipv6: add tokenized interface identifier support
This patch adds support for tokenized IIDs, that enable
administrators to assign well-known host-part addresses
to nodes whilst still obtaining global network prefix
from Router Advertisements. This is the iproute2 part for
the kernel patch f53adae4eae5 (``net: ipv6: add tokenized
interface identifier support'').
Example commands with iproute2:
Setting a device token:
# ip token set ::1a:2b:3c:4d/64 dev eth1
Getting a device token:
# ip token get dev eth1
token ::1a:2b:3c:4d dev eth1
Listing all tokens:
# ip token list (or: ip token)
token :: dev eth0
token ::1a:2b:3c:4d dev eth1
