Route Information Options in IPv6 Neighbor Discovery

Please see below for an updated version of "Route Information Options
in IPv6 Neighbor Discovery". Note that the title is changed since the last
version because we are now allowing RIOs to appear in other IPv6 ND
messages besides just Redirects. In particular, we are now allowing RIOs to
also appear in Neighbor Solicitation (NS) and Advertisement (NA) messages.

The rationale for leveraging NS/NA instead of RS/RA is given in Section 4.2.6.
The rest of document was updated to address the helpful input received
from colleagues at IETF98. Please review and post comments to the list
and/or the authors.

Abstract:
   The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol provides a Redirect function
   allowing routers to inform recipients of a better next hop neighbor
   on the link toward the destination, and a Neighbor Solicitation (NS)
   function allowing nodes to solicit a Neighbor Advertisement (NA)
   response from the neighbor.  This document specifies backward-
   compatible extensions to Redirect, NS and NA messages to support the
   discovery of more-specific routes.
