net: ipv6: Keep nexthop of multipath route on admin down

IPv6 deletes route entries associated with multipath routes on an
admin down where IPv4 does not. For example:
    $ ip ro ls vrf red
    unreachable default metric 8192
    1.1.1.0/24 metric 64
            nexthop via 10.100.1.254  dev eth1 weight 1
            nexthop via 10.100.2.254  dev eth2 weight 1
    10.100.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.1.4
    10.100.2.0/24 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.2.4

    $ ip -6 ro ls vrf red
    2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256  pref medium
    2001:db8:2:: dev red proto none metric 0  pref medium
    2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256  pref medium
    2001:db8:11::/120 via 2001:db8:1::16 dev eth1 metric 1024  pref medium
    2001:db8:11::/120 via 2001:db8:2::17 dev eth2 metric 1024  pref medium
    ...

Set link down:
    $ ip li set eth1 down

IPv4 retains the multihop route but flags eth1 route as dead:

    $ ip ro ls vrf red
    unreachable default metric 8192
    1.1.1.0/24
            nexthop via 10.100.1.16  dev eth1 weight 1 dead linkdown
            nexthop via 10.100.2.16  dev eth2 weight 1
    10.100.2.0/24 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.2.4

and IPv6 deletes the route as part of flushing all routes for the device:

    $ ip -6 ro ls vrf red
    2001:db8:2:: dev red proto none metric 0  pref medium
    2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256  pref medium
    2001:db8:11::/120 via 2001:db8:2::17 dev eth2 metric 1024  pref medium
    ...

Worse, on admin up of the device the multipath route has to be deleted
to get this leg of the route re-added.

This patch keeps routes that are part of a multipath route if
ignore_routes_with_linkdown is set with the dead and linkdown flags
enabling consistency between IPv4 and IPv6:

    $ ip -6 ro ls vrf red
    2001:db8:2:: dev red proto none metric 0  pref medium
    2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256  pref medium
    2001:db8:11::/120 via 2001:db8:1::16 dev eth1 metric 1024 dead linkdown  pref medium
    2001:db8:11::/120 via 2001:db8:2::17 dev eth2 metric 1024  pref medium
    ...
