nixos/tests: add systemd-networkd-ipv6-prefix-delegation
This is a follow-up to the PR #82026 that contains the promised tests.

In this test I am testing if we can properly propagate prefixes received
via DHCPv6 PD with the networkd options in our module system.

The comments in the test should be sufficient to follow the idea and
what is going on.

# This test verifies that we can request and assign IPv6 prefixes from upstream
# (e.g. ISP) routers.
# The setup consits of three VMs. One for the ISP, as your residential router
# and the third as a client machine in the residential network.
#
# There are two VLANs in this test:
# - VLAN 1 is the connection between the ISP and the router
# - VLAN 2 is the connection between the router and the client

# regular IPv6 auto-configuration it will also emit IPv6 router
# advertisements (RAs). Those RA's will not carry a prefix but in contrast
# just set the "Other" flag to indicate to the receiving nodes that they
# should attempt DHCPv6.
#
# Note: On the ISPs device we don't really care if we are using networkd in
# this example. That being said we can't use it (yet) as networkd doesn't
# implement the serving side of DHCPv6. We will use ISC's well aged dhcpd6
