Title:
  [RFE] Add API to set ipv6 gateway

Status in neutron:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Currently the ipv6 external gateway is an admin configuration item. We
  want instead to have an API to set the ipv6 gateway.

  Background:

  The ipv6 router BP
  (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/ipv6-router) added a
  new L3 agent config called ipv6_gateway wherein an admin can configure
  the IPv6 LLA of the upstream physical router, so that the neutron
  virtual router has a default V6 gateway route to the upstream router.

  This solution is however not scalable when there are multiple external routers per L3 agent.
  Per review comments - https://review.openstack.org/#/c/156283/42/etc/l3_agent.ini
  It is better to move this config to the CLI.

  As discussed in the L3 weekly meeting -
  http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/neutron_l3/2015/neutron_l3.2015-06-11-15.04.log.html,
  this change aims to make this exact change by updating neutron net-
  create CLI will to now have a new option to set an ipv6_gateway (for
  the external router).
