IPv6 support: Add proper link-local and SLAAC in STA and WifiMulti

This patch partially depends on:
espressif/esp32-arduino-lib-builder#67
Without this patch we will get only Link local IPv6 (still useful for MDNS and etc).
With patch we will get also global IPv6 address by SLAAC.
By default IPv6 disabled, until it is properly tested.

Tested on BasicHttpClient by adding:
wifiMulti.IPv6(true);
before: wifiMulti.addAP() call

Enabling Core Debug Level: verbose
If IP6 obtained, in logs will be visible:
[  8028][V][WiFiGeneric.cpp:380] _arduino_event_cb(): IF[0] Got IPv6: IP Index: 0, Zone: 2, fe80:0000:0000:0000:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx
