The previous patch fixes a bug that prevented the creation of the
default IPv6 multicast route (ff00::/8) for some GRE devices. Now let's
extend the GRE IPv6 selftests to cover this case.
Also, rename check_ipv6_ll_addr() to check_ipv6_device_config() and
adapt comments and script output to take into account the fact that
we're not limited to link-local address generation.

GRE devices have their special code for IPv6 link-local address
generation that has been the source of several regressions in the past.
Add selftest to check that all gre, ip6gre, gretap and ip6gretap get an
IPv6 link-link local address in accordance with the
net.ipv6.conf.<dev>.addr_gen_mode sysctl.
Note: This patch was originally applied as commit 6f50175cca ("selftests:
Add IPv6 link-local address generation tests for GRE devices.").
However, it was then reverted by commit 355d940f4d ("Revert "selftests:
Add IPv6 link-local address generation tests for GRE devices."")
because the commit it depended on was going to be reverted. Now that
the situation is resolved, we can add this selftest again (no changes
since original patch, appart from context update in
tools/testing/selftests/net/Makefile).
