ipv6: move stub initialization after ipv6 setup completion
The ipv6 stub pointer is currently initialized before the ipv6 routing subsystem: a 3rd party can access and use such stub before the routing data is ready. Moreover, such pointer is not cleared in case of initialization error, possibly leading to dangling pointers usage. This change addresses the above moving the stub initialization at the end of ipv6 init code.
