ipv6: initialize temporary ifaddr before publication
ipv6_create_tempaddr() holds a reference to the public ifaddr, publishes the new temporary address through ipv6_add_addr(), and only then stores the reference and final timestamps. addrconf_ifdown() can remove the temporary address before ifpub is stored, leaking the public ifaddr reference. Publishing ifpub alone is insufficient: manage_tempaddrs() can then find the object before cstamp and tstamp are final, update its lifetimes, and have the constructor overwrite its timestamp with an older value. This follow-on was found by source review and was not separately triggered at runtime. Pass the public ifaddr and both timestamps in ifa6_config. Initialize all three fields before adding the temporary address to either the hash or per-device lists. On success the existing public-ifaddr reference transfers to the temporary object. On error it remains owned and released by ipv6_create_tempaddr().
