[IPV6]: Use ipv6_addr_src_scope for link address sorting.
In the source address selection, the address must be sorted from global to node-local. But, ifp->scope is different from the scope for source address selection. 2001::1 fe80::1 ::1 ifp->scope 0 0x02 0x01 ipv6_addr_src_scope(&ifp->addr) 0x0e 0x02 0x01 So, we need to use ipv6_addr_src_scope(&ifp->addr) for sorting. And, for backward compatibility, addresses should be sorted from new one to old one.
