Guys, I'm no longer suggesting that we disable RA here. After our
discussion I updated this bug
to indicate that we really want some way to *leave* RA alone.

At this point that means netplan needs to *NOT* emit AcceptRA values
into the .network configuration
files by default (as it does now), but only if the input yaml included
an accept-ra value set.
