Is the equivalent not needed for fou?

More importantly, this means we need to add CONFIG_IPV6_FOU to
tools/testing/selftests/net/config

I think these two functions can probably be deduplicated easily. But I
may be wrong, e.g., if there are too many nodad, autojoin, etc special
cases to have to take care of.. Fine to leave as is too.

Pass -i 0.01 to speed this up?

Use KSFT_SKIP for such cases.
