ipv6/addrconf: ensure addrconf_verify_rtnl() has completed

Before freeing the hash table in addrconf_exit_net(),
we need to make sure the work queue has completed,
or risk NULL dereference or UAF.

Thus, use cancel_delayed_work_sync() to enforce this.
We do not hold RTNL in addrconf_exit_net(), making this safe.
