Description:

Create a new applicability platform to check IPv6 state and include a platform: ipv6[enabled] in for the group of rules that configure IPv6.

Rationale:

Review Hints:

  1. ./build_product rhel9
  2. Test some IPv6 related rules. e.g.:
    ./tests/automatus.py rule --libvirt qemu:///session rhel9 --datastream build/ssg-rhel9-ds.xml --dontclean --remediate-using bash sysctl_net_ipv6_conf_all_accept_ra
  3. The rule should be checked normally if the IPv6 is enabled in the system (default)
  4. Disable the IPv6 with this command: grubby --update-kernel=ALL --args=ipv6.disable=1
  5. Test the rule again and now it should report notapplicable

Here are examples of other rules which could be tested:

  • sysctl_net_ipv6_conf_all_accept_redirects
  • sysctl_net_ipv6_conf_all_accept_source_route
  • sysctl_net_ipv6_conf_default_accept_redirects

The intention is to use this applicability in IPv6 related rules so they
report "notapplicable" when IPv6 is disabled in the system.
This template will be used by the ipv6 applicability to check if IPv6 is
disabled or enabled in the system. It will rely on "ipv6.disable" boot
parameter defined in /etc/default/grup as this is the most reliable
way to disable IPv6 on a system. It is not considering runtime
configuration but this could be extended in the future, if deemed
necessary.
