ipv6ll: don't regenerate the address when it's removed externally

Currently if the IPv6 link-local address is removed after it passed
DAD, NetworkManager tries to generate a new link-local address. If
this fails, which is always the case for EUI64, ipv6ll is considered
as failed and the connection can go down (depending on may-fail).

This is particularly bad for virtual interfaces because if somebody
removes the link-local address, the activation can fail and destroy
the interface, breaking all services that require it. Also, it's a
change in behavior introduced in 1.36.0.

It seems that a better approach here is to re-add the address that was
removed externally.
