platform: assume support for IPv6 temporary addrsses if detection fails

Browse Source 
We detect support for IPv6 temporary addresses (IFA_F_MANAGETEMPADDR) or /64 v6 prefixes
(IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE) based on the presence of extended address flags. For the most part
this just works, but it fails down if upon initialization no addresses are present.

In such a case we would have assumed no support. Change that to default to available
support as the feature is already 2 years in upstream kernel.
