BGP IPv6 Multipath tested and confirmed.

(Negative test with current Quagga Master, applied all 5 patches as set together and
confirmed it as working)

Testtool (same as before):
If you want to try what I did, then checkout branch test/ipv6_ecmp from my bgptool
at https://git-us.netdef.org/projects/NETDEF/repos/bgptool

See doc inside README_ipv6_ecmp.md for details on how I test
https://git-us.netdef.org/projects/NETDEF/repos/bgptool/browse/README_ipv6_ecmp.md?at=refs%2Fheads%2Ftest%2Fipv6_ecmp

IPv6 multipath is broken in BGP if nexthop contains only global address. IPv6 always uses both nextop IPv6 address and ifIndex in sending routes down to zebra. In cases where only the global IPv6 address is present in the nexthop information, the existing code doesn't set the ifIndex. An example of such a case is when a route-map isused with "set ipv6 next-hop" and only global address is specified. This code causes the ifIndex to be determined and
set thereby fixing the multipath programming.
