[ipv6] Match user expectations for IPv6 settings priorities
A reasonable user expectation is that ${net0/ip6} should show the
"highest-priority" of the IPv6 addresses, even when multiple IPv6
addresses are active. The expected order of priority is likely to be
manually-assigned addresses first, then stateful DHCPv6 addresses,
then SLAAC addresses, and lastly link-local addresses.
Using ${priority} to enforce an ordering is undesirable since that
would affect the priority assigned to each of the net<N> blocks as a
whole, so use the sibling ordering capability instead.
