If DAD not finished in 5 seconds, user will get an
unknown error like this:
# virsh net-start ipv6
error: Failed to start network ipv6
error: An error occurred, but the cause is unknown
Call virReportError to set an error.

I found the DAD will take 7 seconds
on my machine, and i cannot create a network which
use ipv6 now :( . Can we offer a way allow user to change this
timeout ? maybe add a configuration file option in
libvirtd.conf.
