PATCH v2 1/1 net/ipv6: Revert attempt to simplify route replace and append

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

NetworkManager likes to manage linklocal prefix routes and does so with the NLM_F_APPEND flag, breaking attempts to simplify the IPv6 route code and by extension enable multipath routes with device only nexthops.

Revert f34436a43092 and these followup patches:
6eba08c3626b ("ipv6: Only emit append events for appended routes"). ce45bded6435 ("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Align with new route replace logic") 53b562df8c20 ("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Allow appending to dev-only routes")

Update the fib_tests cases to reflect the old behavior.

Fixes f34436a43092 ("net/ipv6: Simplify route replace and appending into multipath route")

---
The gre_multipath tests only exist in net-next. Those will need to be updated separately.

Ok, please send me the net-next update once this gets merged there.

Thanks.
