[IPV6] address: Support NLM_F_EXCL when adding addresses

iproute2 doesn't provide the NLM_F_CREATE flag when adding addresses,
it is assumed to be implied. The existing code issues a check on
said flag when the modify operation fails (likely due to ENOENT)
before continueing to create it, this leads to a hard to predict
result, therefore the NLM_F_CREATE check is removed.
