Update IPv6 docs with modern `ip` command use + `sysctl` 

Fixes: #10701

Updates the IPv6 documentation and images to reflect the more modern
`ip -6` command set versus `route` and `ifconfig`.  Also removes the
use of the special 2002: address range as that is reserved for 6to4
addressing, as well as use of any public address range and re-works the
switched routing example to use 3 subnets of the documentation IPv6
prefix range.

Also conformed all use of addresses to the same doc range per @MalteJ's
commit.
