Fix the flags for RA-derived routes that were saved
via "ip -6 route save" and and subsequently restored via
"ip -6 route restore", allowing the incoming router advertisements
to update them, rather than complain about inability to do so.
Upon the restore of RA-derived saved routes, set the RTF_ADDRCONF
to indicate that the source of the route was originally
a router advertisement, and set the RTF_DEFAULT or RTF_ROUTEINFO
flag depending on prefix length. This can be considered a
sister change of f0396f60d7c165018c9b203fb9b89fb224835578, in
the other direction.
