* Version 0.2.6
* Added a feature that will automatically create route entries
in the routing tables, thus providing an alternative to this
https://github.com/google/ndprbrd projects use-case.
* Added a new configuration setting named "deadtime" which allows
sessions that never made it the VALID to have a different (i.e.
shorter) life before they are removed (and potentially retried)
(defauilt is the same value as usual TTL for backwards compatibility)
* Added a new configuration setting named "autowire" in the proxy
section (default is off)
* If the "autowire" setting is on, then upon receiving a NDP
Neighbor Advertisment from one of the rule interfaces, a route will
be automatically added into the linux IP routing tables thus allowing
for a full featured gateway when IPv6 forwarding is turned on.
Note: Be careful as "accept_ra" may need to be set to 2 on the
interface during testing for the routing tables to retain their
default route (unrelated to this patch but took me a while to
discover).
* When a session ends then anything that was "autowired" will be
automatically removed thus ensuring the routing tables are in a
similar state to before the daemon (or session) made any changes
* Added a feature where the session will attempt to renew itself
(with a new NDP Solicitation) before it self-terminates, this is
required otherwise packets could be lost when the session terminates
triggering the automatically removal of the route table entry.
* Ensured that renew operations only take place if the session has
been recently touched by an external solicitation - this ensures
that sessions that become IDLE are cleaned up quickly
* Moved the daemonizing step till after the system executed the
configure step so that the error exit codes are returned to the daemon
caller.
* No longer continuing to load the daemon if any of the interfaces fail
to load which should give a more predictable behaviour and better user experience.
