net/ipv6: Expand and rename accept_unsolicited_na to accept_untracked_na 

RFC 9131 changes default behaviour of handling RX of NA messages when the
corresponding entry is absent in the neighbour cache. The current
implementation is limited to accept just unsolicited NAs. However, the
RFC is more generic where it also accepts solicited NAs. Both types
should result in adding a STALE entry for this case.

Expand accept_untracked_na behaviour to also accept solicited NAs to
be compliant with the RFC and rename the sysctl knob to
accept_untracked_na.

By default this is turned off.
accept_unsolicited_na - BOOLEAN
Add a new neighbour cache entry in STALE state for routers on receiving an
unsolicited neighbour advertisement with target link-layer address option
specified. This is as per router-side behavior documented in RFC9131.
This has lower precedence than drop_unsolicited_na.
accept_untracked_na - BOOLEAN
Add a new neighbour cache entry in STALE state for routers on receiving a
neighbour advertisement (either solicited or unsolicited) with target
link-layer address option specified if no neighbour entry is already
present for the advertised IPv6 address. Without this knob, NAs received
for untracked addresses (absent in neighbour cache) are silently ignored.
