ipv6: Use 1280 as min MTU for ipv6 forwarding

Browse Source 
Clients will set their MTU to 1280 if they receive a
ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG message with an MTU less than 1280.

To allow encapsulating of packets over a 1280 link
we should always accept packets with a size of 1280
for forwarding even if the path has a lower MTU and
fragment the encapsulated packets afterwards.

In case a forwarded packet is not going to be encapsulated
a ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG msg will still be send by ip6_fragment()
with the correct MTU.
