net: add sysctl to disable rfc4862 5.5.3e lifetime handling

This change adds a sysctl to opt-out of RFC4862 section 5.5.3e's valid
lifetime derivation mechanism.

RFC4862 section 5.5.3e prescribes that the valid lifetime in a Router
Advertisement PIO shall be ignored if it less than 2 hours and to reset
the lifetime of the corresponding address to 2 hours. An in-progress
6man draft (see draft-ietf-6man-slaac-renum-07 section 4.2) is currently
looking to remove this mechanism. While this draft has not been moving
particularly quickly for other reasons, there is widespread consensus on
section 4.2 which updates RFC4862 section 5.5.3e.
