Add support for PIO p flag

Browse Source 
draft-ietf-6man-pio-pflag is adding a new flag to the Prefix Information
Option to signal that the network can allocate a unique IPv6 prefix per
client via DHCPv6-PD (see draft-ietf-v6ops-dhcp-pd-per-device).

When ra_honor_pio_pflag is enabled, the presence of a P-flag causes
SLAAC autoconfiguration to be disabled for that particular PIO.

An automated test has been added in Android (r.android.com/3195335) to
go along with this change.

The Prefix Information Option P-flag indicates the network can
allocate a unique IPv6 prefix per client using DHCPv6-PD.
This sysctl can be enabled when a userspace DHCPv6-PD client
is running to cause the P-flag to take effect: i.e. the
P-flag suppresses any effects of the A-flag within the same
PIO. For a given PIO, P=1 and A=1 is treated as A=0.
- If disabled, the P-flag is ignored.
- If enabled, the P-flag will disable SLAAC autoconfiguration
for the given Prefix Information Option.
