ipv6: prepare headers for ipv6_stub removal

In preparation for dropping ipv6_stub and converting its users to direct
function calls, introduce static inline dummy functions and fallback
macros in the IPv6 networking headers. In addition, introduce checks on
fib6_nh_init(), ip6_dst_lookup_flow() and ip6_fragment() to avoid a
crash due to ipv6.disable=1 set during booting. The other functions are
safe as they cannot be called with ipv6.disable=1 set.

These fallbacks ensure that when CONFIG_IPV6 is completely disabled,
there are no compiling or linking errors due to code paths not guarded
by preprocessor macro IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6).

In addition, export ndisc_send_na(), ip6_route_input() and
ip6_fragment().
