  1. Fix can't access IPV6 address via management interface because 'defau… 

    …lt' route table does not add to route lookup issue. (sonic-net#17281)

Fix can't access IPV6 address via management interface because 'default' route table does not add to route lookup issue.

#### Why I did it
When device set with IPV6 TACACS server address, and shutdown all BGP, device can't connect to TACACS server via management interface.

After investigation, I found the IPV6 'default' route table does not add to route lookup:

admin@vlab-01:~$ ip -6 rule list
1001:   from all lookup local
32765:  from fec0::ffff:afa:1 lookup default
32766:  from all lookup main
admin@vlab-01:~$

As compare:
admin@vlab-01:~$ ip -4 rule list
1001:   from all lookup local
32764:  from all to 172.17.0.1/24 lookup default
32765:  from 10.250.0.101 lookup default
32766:  from all lookup main
32767:  from all lookup default <== 'default' route table exist in IPV4 route lookup

Issue fix by add 'default' route table to route lookup with following command:
admin@vlab-01:~$ sudo ip -6 rule add pref 32767 lookup default
admin@vlab-01:~$ ip -6 rule list
1001:   from all lookup local
32765:  from fec0::ffff:afa:1 lookup default
32766:  from all lookup main
32767:  from all lookup default <== 'default' route table been added to IPV6 route lookup
admin@vlab-01:~$
