[ipv6] check for a valid destination address in ipv6_rx

Previously, gPXE would happily process any IPv6 packet transmitted to it,
even if it was not targeted to the gPXE station. This caused issues
with ICMPv6 echo requests in particular, but also wasted processing time on
other traffic on the network.

Now, the destination address is verified before too much processing is done.
