pf wants icmp6 protocol

[maciejej@xxxxxxxx]

The pf.conf man page specifically mentions "icmp6" as a protocol: "This
rule applies only to packets of this protocol.  Common proto-cols are
icmp(4), icmp6(4), tcp(4), and udp(4).  For a list of all the protocol
name to number mappings used by pfctl(8), see the file /etc/protocols."

/etc/protocols does not, however, contain "icmp6" so any mention of it in
pf.conf will cause pfctl to fail to load the rules. A trivial diff to add
an alias for "icmp6" is included below. FreeBSD and NetBSD HEAD contain
the same change with slight differences in whitespace.
