Add extack info for IPv6 address add/delete, which would be useful for
users to understand the problem without having to read kernel code.

Suggested-by: Beniamino Galvani <bgalvani@redhat.com>

v3: * Update extack message. Pass extack to addrconf_f6i_alloc().
    * Return "IPv6 is disabled" for addrconf_add_dev(), as the same
      with ndisc_allow_add() does.
    * Set dup addr extack message in inet6_rtm_newaddr() instead of
      ipv6_add_addr_hash().
v2: Update extack msg for dead dev. Remove msg for NOBUFS error.
    Add extack for ipv6_add_addr_hash()

It would be good to split the above checks into separate ones with more
specific messages.

and pass extack to this one for better message as well.

How about this.

This one looks a little deep. We need pass extack to
- ipv6_mc_config
  - ipv6_sock_mc_join
    - __ipv6_sock_mc_join
      - __ipv6_dev_mc_inc	maybe also this one??

to get more detailed message. And all these are "Join multicast group failed".
Do you still want to do this?

Thanks

Maybe just "IPv6: Invalid address".

Also, that reminds me that IPv6 should be using NL_SET_ERR_MSG_MOD which
will add the IPv6 part.

ok, staring at the errors for that stack, not much value I guess.
