    IPVS: Add handling of incoming ICMPV6 messages
    
    Add handling of incoming ICMPv6 messages.
    This follows the handling of IPv4 ICMP messages.
    
    Amongst ther things this problem allows IPVS to behave sensibly
    when an ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG message is received:
    
    This message is received when a realserver sends a packet >PMTU to the
    client. The hop on this path with insufficient MTU will generate an
    ICMPv6 Packet Too Big message back to the VIP. The LVS server receives
    this message, but the call to the function handling this has been
    missing. Thus, IPVS fails to forward the message to the real server,
    which then does not adjust the path MTU. This patch adds the missing
    call to ip_vs_in_icmp_v6() in ip_vs_in() to handle this situation.
    
    Thanks to Rob Gallagher from HEAnet for reporting this issue and for
    testing this patch in production (with direct routing mode).
