[RFC] bluetooth_6lowpan: search for peer by host part of address only

[Josua Mayer]

From: Josua Mayer <josua.mayer97@gmail.com>

A peer may have multiple addresses, one being the link-local address
based on its Bluetooth MAC address, and then some assigned dynamically
from router advertisements, and published by neighbour advertisements.

For direct peers neither routes nor gateways are known.
Maybe the destination peer should be matched by the mac address from the
table of ipv6 neighbours.

As a quick hack, match only the last 64 bit of the address to ensure
that addresses using SLAAC can be mapped to their corresponding peer.

Clearly this hack is plain wrong. What is the proper method for finding
the peer that advertised a given address?
