Revert "ethernet_interface: Fix link local autoconfiguration functio
This reverts commit 721d8f75fb6d8d22cc4afc11b06288a47a1a600d.
Commit 721d8f75 causes undesirable behavior when working with Link
Local addresses.
Automatic Link Local addressing needs to allow the systemd-network
stack to automatically add/remove a link local address. When DHCPv4
addressing is enabled the link local needs to be automatically
disabled. When DHCPv4 addressing is disabled the link local address
must automatically be activated.
With commit 721d8f75 active this behavior does not occur. What happens
instead is when DHCPv4 is disabled, and then re-enabled a STATIC Link
Local address is added to the networkd.conf file. Once there the Link
Local address is present until actively removed. This causes the Link
Local addressing to quit being "automatic".
Automatic Link Local addressing creates an address with the "scope"
assigned to LINK_LOCAL_AUTOCONFIGURATION, and a "address origin" equal
to IP::AddressOrigin::Static (i.e. IFA_F_PERMANENT is true).

ethernet_interface.cpp addAddr(): adr: fe80::207:e9ff:fe34:3c6f/64
scp: 000000fd flg: 00000080
There are also undesirable side effects in the IPMI Get LAN
Configuration command when querying IPv6 Dynamic Addresses (Param
59). The Link Local address now gets included in the DHCPv6 assigned
addresses despite the IFA_F_PERMANENT flag being asserted.
Tested:
Reverted the commit.
Disabled and Enabled DHCPv4 and confirmed 169.x.x.x addresses are no
longer written to the network.conf file.
Confirmed LLv6 addresses are no longer reported via the IPMI Get LAN
Config command.
