networkd: rename IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements to IPv6AcceptRA
The long name is just too hard to type. We generally should avoid using
acronyms too liberally, if they aren't established enough, but it appears that
"RA" is known well enough. Internally we call the option "ipv6_accept_ra"
anyway, and the kernel also exposes it under this name. Hence, let's rename the
IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements= setting and the
[IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements] section to IPv6AcceptRA= and [IPv6AcceptRA].
The old setting IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements= is kept for compatibility with
older configuration. (However the section [IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements] is
not, as it was never available in a published version of systemd.
