waiting ipv6 tentative address can hang boot forever

Description

Ran into an fun issue when I moved my IPv6 routing into a different machine.

In certain cases (mainly when you are running an IPv6 router), the tentative status on an IPv6 address will not go away until you start to run the radvd daemon, some time after the interface is brought up.

The present tentative waiting code simply waits forever, hanging the boot. Could we please have a configurable timeout instead of waiting forever?

On 0.4.3-r3 presently.
