ipv6: introduce ipv6_make_skb
This commit is very similar to
commit 1c32c5ad6fac8cee1a77449f5abf211e911ff830

inet: Add ip_make_skb and ip_finish_skb
It adds IPv6 version of the helpers ip6_make_skb and ip6_finish_skb.
The job of ip6_make_skb is to collect messages into an ipv6 packet
and poplulate ipv6 eader. The job of ip6_finish_skb is to transmit
the generated skb. Together they replicated the job of
ip6_push_pending_frames() while also provide the capability to be
called independently. This will be needed to add lockless UDP sendmsg
support.
