ip6_tunnel: allow to change mode for the ip6tnl0
The fallback device is in ipv6 mode by default. The mode can not be changed in runtime, so there is no way to decapsulate ip4in6 packets coming from various sources without creating the specific tunnel ifaces for each peer. This allows to update the fallback tunnel device, but only the mode could be changed. Usual command should work for the fallback device: `ip -6 tun change ip6tnl0 mode any` The fallback device can not be hidden from the packet receiver as a regular tunnel, but there is no need for synchronization as long as we do single assignment.
