Bidirectional IPv6 reachability between Thread and Ethernet/Wi-Fi #496

Bidirectional IPv6 reachability between Thread and Ethernet/Wi-Fi without having to switch to an RCP, and open thread daemon.

wpantund provides a standard IPv6 network interface. To enable IPv6 reachability between Thread and other network interfaces, you need to configure a routable IPv6 prefix for each network and establish routes between them. The latest main branch of openthread/ot-br-posix includes mechanisms to do this automatically, but also relies on the RCP.
