Public bug reported:

- ping6 always use the same source address, whatever the destination is; it should use one of the IPv6 addresses of the connected interface it is sending the traffic on, by default
- ping6 cannot use a specified source interface/address using the -I option, which could have been used as a workaround to the previous issue
