Description
Describe the bug
By default, with addr_adv PM (I didn't check the other ones), all IPv6 addresses are added as endpoints.
In most cases, there is no reason to announce local addresses, e.g. fe80::/10. Maybe it would be better to ignore them by default?
There are probably more than just the IPv6 LL addresses: in v4, there are also some link locals: 169.254.0.0/16
In v6, there are the ULA: fc00::/7
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reserved_IP_addresses
Not sure about the default behaviour with private IPs
To Reproduce
On a system with IPv6 configured with mptcpd and addr_adv PM, just check the MPTCP endpoints.
Expected behavior
By default, no LL addresses.
