  freeipmi ipmi-config --checkout lacks support for ipv6 lan parameters

Bug description:
  See also https://github.com/chu11/freeipmi-mirror/issues/8 and
  https://github.com/chu11/freeipmi-mirror/issues/12 -- freeipmi needs
  to successfully discover the ipv6 address of a hosts BMC.

  [Impact]

   * Machines with BMCs configured to use IPv6 addresses, ipmi-config
     (silently) fails to show those values.

   * MAAS 2.2 supports IPv6 BMC addresses, and depends on ipmi-config
     finding the IPv6 address of the BMC.

   * This upload is a backport of an upstream work-in-progress to add IPv6
     configuration parameters to ipmi-config.  While the eventual upstream
     source may differ slightly as the branch lands, this delivers the
     information for use.  ANYONE USING THIS CODE NEEDS TO BE PREPARED TO
     CHANGE TO MATCH THE ACTUAL DELIVERY WHEN 1.6 LANDS.

  [Test Case]

   * Start with an HP DL360 Proliant Gen9 (iLO4 is required) with an IPv6
     address configured on the iLO.  Try to get ipmi-config to give you
     that address.

   * This upload introduces the Lan6_Conf section (which may change when
     1.6 finally arrives.)  The following displays the IPv6 Addresses of
     the BMC:
        ipmi-config --checkout --category=core --section=Lan6_Conf

  [Regression Potential]

   * Scripting that uses --checkout and no section/key-pair specification
     will now see the additional Lan6_Conf section, which has the potential
     to confuse said script.

   * If upstream changes the presentation of the data, anyone who has
     adopted this pre-release of same may see differences.  The section is
     clearly marked as subject to change in 1.6, and missing in 1.5.  (If
     Ubuntu syncs 1.5, MAAS is committed to porting this change forward.
     Upstream has committed to the feature being present in 1.6.)

  [Other Info]

  Once the changes are available, MAAS will need to change to use the
  new Lan6_Conf section.
