device: do not set disable_ipv6 on external

Wen Liang requested to merge wl/disable_ipv6_fix into main

Summary

For device connecting via external connection, NM still toggles the disable_ipv6 sysctl setting into 0 even if systemd-sysctl sets it nto 1. To fix it, NM should not touch the IPv6 setting when device's sys_iface_state is external.

Purpose

Fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2207878.
