vMac for ipv6 #181

Description

As an OVHcloud customer using dedicated bare metal servers
I want to be able to assign virtual mac addresses to the ipv6 address block
so that I can assign ipv6 addresses to guests in my proxmox instance

I have an existing setup with ipv4 addresses that I can easily set the mac address of a VM or LXC and through the use of a dhcp server, have the VM or LXC automatically discover and use their ipv4 address. I would appreciate a similar functionality for ipv6, as it seems very weird that we're not already able to do this, since we can do it with ipv4.

I'd expect that I can use "Select IPv6" or a new option "Add a virtual MAC" from the dropdown to select an ipv6 and then define a vMac and then have that ipv6 show up inside the ipv6's fold with the vmac, sort of similar to how ipv4's additional IP blocks work.
