23ac49bf83 Move Ubuntu specific use_tempaddr setting to ubuntu-common element
By default (during boot) the use_tempaddr is set to <=0 for all
up-to date kernels.  Only Ubuntu installes a sysctl setting which
sets the use_tempaddr to 2 (/etc/sysctl.d/10-ipv6-privacy.conf) [1].
The 80-disable-rfc3041 overwrites this setting and sets
use_tempaddr back to 0.

Because this only affects Ubuntu it makes sense to move the script
to the ubuntu-common element. The other motivation for the move is,
to clear the base element that it can be removed.

4b1a875e56 Disabled IPv6 privacy extensions
IPv6 privacy extensions can cause issues by preferring a temporary
network over a public one. This preference may limit connectivity
in certain situations. An example of a connectivity issue can be
seen where the command ``traceroute6`` fails or misses all hops
while other traffic to a given domain with a "AAAA" record may
succeed. To resolve this issue the IPv6 privacy extensions have
been disabled.
