printk: add %p6 format specifier for IPv6 addresses
Takes a pointer to a IPv6 address and formats it in the usual
colon-separated hex format:
xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx
Each 16 bit word is printed in network-endian byteorder.
%#p6 is also supported and will omit the colons.
%p6 is a replacement for NIP6_FMT and NIP6()
%#p6 is a replacement for NIP6_SEQFMT and NIP6()
Note that NIP6() took a struct in6_addr whereas this takes a pointer
to a struct in6_addr.
