lwip: make IPV6 link-local support over PPP configurable

Browse source 
Make the link local negotiation for IPV6 in PPP optional and
configurable.
This is because some modems do not support the IPV6 negotiation and
sending IPV6CP frames would in some cases break the network
configuration phase, resulting in a timeout during the Phase Network.

Please note that this does not disable the IPV6 support for the outgoing
communication (IPV6 is still enabled even if this option is not
selected) but just for the local link between lwIP and modem.

Enable IPV6 support in PPP for the local link between the DTE (processor) and DCE (modem).
There are some modems which do not support the IPV6 addressing in the local link.
If they are requested for IPV6CP negotiation, they may time out.
This would in turn fail the configuration for the whole link.
If your modem is not responding correctly to PPP Phase Network, try to disable IPV6 support.
