David Karlsson f4dfdeed29 docs: document router-assigned (SLAAC) IPv6 on macvlan/ipvlan (#25376)
Adds a "Use router-assigned IPv6 addresses" subsection to the macvlan
and ipvlan driver pages, covering how to receive IPv6 via SLAAC from a
router on the parent network instead of Docker IPAM.

When the network has no IPv6 subnet, Docker disables IPv6 on the
endpoint; setting the per-interface `net.ipv6.conf.IFNAME.disable_ipv6`
sysctl to `0` via the `endpoint.sysctls` driver option re-enables it so
the interface accepts router advertisements. The section links to the
`docker network connect` sysctl reference for the full mechanism. Also
adds `ipv6`/`slaac` keywords to both pages for discoverability.

Motivated by
[moby/moby#52815](https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/52815), where the
per-endpoint sysctl mechanism was hard to discover from the driver docs.
