[PATCH 2/2] ipv6: addrconf: clean up device type handling

This realigns addrconf support for the various lower-layer device types, and removes a little bit of duplicate code. Behaviour should be exactly identical before and after the patch. (Also adds a comment to explain the weird fe80::/64 on GRE.)
