qrap: Add a neighbour solicitation to probe frames, instead of just ARP2022_07_20.9af2e5d

For a while now, passt disables ARP functionality completely if IPv4
is disabled. If qrap sends an ARP request as a probe in that case, it
will receive no answer and move on, trying to find another instance.

Add a second probe frame, a hardcoded neighbour solicitation, so that
we get a neighbour advertisement if IPv6 is enabled.

Without this change, IPv6-only operation is completely broken.
