selftests: fib_nexthops: test stale has_v4 on nexthop replace
Add test cases that exercise the scenario where an IPv6 nexthop is replaced with an IPv4 nexthop while being part of a group. The group's has_v4 flag must be updated so that subsequent IPv6 route additions are properly rejected. Two cases are covered: 1. Gateway nexthop replaced across families with an existing IPv6 route on the group (rejected by fib6_check_nh_list). 2. Blackhole nexthop replaced across families with no existing IPv6 route on the group (fib6_check_nh_list returns early) — this is the path that triggers a NULL ptr deref without the kernel fix.
