Bug Description

[Impact]

Kernel 5.15 requires iproute2 at least v5.14 to properly support IPv6 In-situ OAM (IOAM6).

[Test case]

This lack of support is triggering the following kernel selftest failure:

 # selftests: net: ioam6.sh
 # SKIP: iproute2 too old, missing ioam command
 not ok 1 selftests: net: ioam6.sh # exit=1

[Fix]

We're still using iproute2 v5.10 in jammy. It'd be nice to update to the latest upstream version (v5.15) to properly support this new kernel feature (and more).

[Regression potential]

We may introduce networking regressions with this change, because we are jumping from iproute2 5.10 to 5.15.
