opensolaris, tap mode, extra ipv6 routes do not work

Description

Not sure whether this never worked, it was never properly tested, or we broke it somewhen - but 2.4 + master call "route add" with metric 0 for gateway routes, which is working for tun(?!) but fails for tap. The same route without the "0" works.

Sun Aug 19 21:22:19 2018 add_route_ipv6(fd00:abcd:194::/48 -> fd00:abcd:194:4::1 metric -1) dev tap0
Sun Aug 19 21:22:19 2018 /usr/sbin/route add -inet6 fd00:abcd:194::/48 fd00:abcd:194:4::1 0
add net fd00:abcd:194::/48: gateway fd00:abcd:194:4::1: Network is unreachable

(I'm fairly sure this worked at some point, but I'm not going to bisect this today - t_client tests 4/4a nicely trigger this)

seems this was broken "since ever" and I just commented out the failing ping6 target in my buildslave's t_client.rc (and forgot about it right away). Meh.

Really getting old, it seems. Open a trac ticket on it, forget about it, rebuild the buildslave with OpenIndiana?, bump into the same issue, and then actually fix it :-)
