net: Fix a bug when handling IPv6 packets
When gem5 runs with the networking support, it will run into an assertion
fail and aborted. This is because it tries to calculate checksum for IPv6
packet and this makes the IpPtr pointer ``ip'' become NULL. For that there
is functions and classes for IPv6 in base/inet.cc, I added IPv6 support for
i8254xGBe.cc. Because IPv6 header does not have identification number, I
ignored some of the debug messages using ip->id().
