Re: [Roll] Adopting turnon 8138

We generally signal compression capabilities using 6CIO (see RFC 7400).

I think this discussion is a symptom of ROLL trying to usurp some of the neighbor discovery functions, so in the end we never know where to put what.  Of course piggybacking routing setup into neighbor setup is a good optimization, but doing neighbor setup implicitly based on having seen routing setup is creating this problem.  Maybe we can clean this up at some point.

I think we should separate configurations of the RPL routing standards and of the packet compression standards. We may add another configuration option per DODAG or another way.
