Issue number:
Fixes #3411
Description of changes:
Try to keep the kernel's IPv6 RA client from changing anything when using systemd-networkd's client, since that could put the interface into an unexpected state that requires a service restart to fix.
This disables all sysctls where the upstream docs have this note:
These sysctls are used to selectively enable or disable parts of the kernel's
accept_ra
behavior, so disabling them all gets us as close as we can to having the entire feature disabled.Testing done:
