3a3b3691d1 nwfilter: Add support for icmpv6 filtering
Make use of the ebtables functionality to be able to filter certain
parameters of icmpv6 packets. Extend the XML parser for icmpv6 types,
type ranges, codes, and code ranges. Extend the nwfilter documentation,
schema, and test cases.

Being able to filter icmpv6 types and codes helps extending the DHCP
snooper for IPv6 and filtering at least some parameters of IPv6's NDP
(Neighbor Discovery Protocol) packets. However, the filtering will not
be as good as the filtering of ARP packets since we cannot
check on IP addresses in the payload of the NDP packets.

8459218cbc This patch adds a couple of test cases for the XML parsing test suite covering various filterable protocols. For each test case an input XML and an output XML is provided checking the input XML after parsing and converting back into XML against the exepcted output XML.
