ipv6: Kill ipv6 dependency of icmpv6_send().
Following patch adds icmp-registration module for ipv6. It allows
ipv6 protocol to register icmp_sender which is used for sending
ipv6 icmp msgs. This extra layer allows us to kill ipv6 dependency
for sending icmp packets.
This patch also fixes ip_tunnel compilation problem when ip_tunnel
is statically compiled in kernel but ipv6 is module
