Fix IPv6 netmask format for sysconfig (#1215)
This change converts the IPv6 netmask from the network_data.json[1]
format to the CIDR style, <IPv6_addr>/<prefix>.
Using an IPv6 address like ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:: does not work with
NetworkManager, nor networkscripts.
NetworkManager will ignore the route, logging:
ifcfg-rh: ignoring invalid route at \
"::/:: via fd00:fd00:fd00:2::fffe dev $DEV" \
(/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route6-$DEV:3): \
Argument for "::/::" is not ADDR/PREFIX format
Similarly if using networkscripts, ip route fail with error:
Error: inet6 prefix is expected rather than \
"fd00:fd00:fd00::/ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::".
Also a bit of refactoring ...
cloudinit.net.sysconfig.Route.to_string:
* Move a couple of lines around to reduce repeated code.
* if "ADDRESS" not in key -> continute, so that the
code block following it can be de-indented.
cloudinit.net.network_state:
* Refactors the ipv4_mask_to_net_prefix, ipv6_mask_to_net_prefix
removes mask_to_net_prefix methods. Utilize ipaddress library to
do some of the heavy lifting.
LP: #1959148
Conflicts:
* minor conflicts due to different code formatting (single line import vs 2 lines), will probably be fixed
in future rebases.
