This patch removes handling to remove short address for a neigbour entry
if RS/RA/NS/NA doesn't contain a short address. If these messages
doesn't has any short address option, the existing short address from
ndisc cache will be used. The current behaviour will set that the
neigbour doesn't has a short address anymore.

When receiving neighbour information with short address option field we
should check the complete range of invalid short addresses and set it to
one invalid address setting which is the unspecified address. This
address is also used when by creating at first a new neighbour entry to
indicate no short address is set.
