IGMP is used on IPv4 networks set setup multicast group
memberships. On IPv6, this job is done by Multicast Listener Discovery
(MLD), which uses ICMPv6 packets rather than using its own IP protocol
number.
The nwfilter documentation lists "igmp-ipv6" as one of the possible
protocols, but this is ignored (and stripped from the xml). This patch
removes that erroneous reference.
