There is a subtle bug that is the result of two changes made when upstreaming
ICMPv6 support from Fuchsia:
1) ipv6.endpoint.WritePacket writes the local address it was initialized with,
rather than the provided route's local address
2) ipv6.endpoint.handleICMP doesn't set its route's local address to the ICMP
target address before writing the response
The result is that the ICMP response erroneously uses the target ipv6 address
(rather than icmp) as its source address in the response. When trying to debug
this by fixing (2), we ran into problems with bad ipv6 checksums because (1)
didn't respect the local address of the route being passed to it.
This fixes both problems.

Makes it possible to avoid copying or allocating in cases where DeliverNetworkPacket (rx)
needs to turn around and call WritePacket (tx) with its VectorisedView.
Also removes the restriction on having VectorisedViews with multiple views in the write path.

This CL does NDP link-address discovery for IPv6.
It includes several small changes necessary to get linux to talk to
this implementation. In particular, a hop limit of 255 is necessary
for ICMPv6.
