Clark Boylan 5b5b78bf59 Set router solicitation delay with using NM
The linux kernel and NetworkManager fight each other over control for
interface management when router advertisements are in use. Long story
short if the linux kernel configures a network interface for ipv6
before NetworkManager attempts to manage that interface then NM will
ignore the interface and not configure ipv4 on it.

This can happen because the kernel is configured to send router
advertisements solicitations which result in router advertisements which
the kernel uses to configure the interface(s). There is a default of a 1
second delay before sending the solicitation which in many cases is long
enough that NM has started before then. However, in slower environments
like those used for testing with qemu this isn't long enough.

Some testing by hand indicates that 15 seconds is about right so
increase the delay to 15 seconds via sysctl.conf.

Note this may increase boot times in ipv6 only environments (though it
is hard to be sure due to how systemd starts everything at once and does
socket activation and the like).
