Resorted CRG chapters and added IPv6 config to CloudAdminGuide

Config Ref now has sorted chapters (matches CLI chapters). IPv6
edited and moved to Cloud Admin Guide. Moved networking sections
into networking directory.

<title>Configure Compute to use IPv6 addresses</title>
<para>If you are using OpenStack Compute with <systemitem>nova-network</systemitem>, you can put
Compute into IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack mode, so that it uses both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for
communication. In IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack mode, instances can acquire their IPv6 global unicast
address by using a stateless address auto configuration mechanism [RFC 4862/2462]. IPv4/IPv6
dual-stack mode works with both <literal>VlanManager</literal> and
<literal>FlatDHCPManager</literal> networking modes. In <literal>VlanManager</literal>, each
project uses a different 64-bit global routing prefix. In <literal>FlatDHCPManager</literal>,
all instances use one 64-bit global routing prefix.</para>
<para>This configuration was tested with VM images that have an IPv6 stateless address auto
configuration capability. This capability is required for any VM you want to run with
an IPv6 address. You must use EUI-64 address for stateless address auto configuration.
Each node that executes a <literal>nova-*</literal> service must have
<literal>python-netaddr</literal> and <literal>radvd</literal> installed.
</para>
<procedure>
<title>Switch into IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack mode</title>
<step><para>On all nodes running a <literal>nova-*</literal> service, install
<systemitem>python-netaddr</systemitem>:</para>
<screen><prompt>#</prompt> <userinput>apt-get install python-netaddr</userinput></screen></step>

<step><para>Restart all <literal>nova-*</literal> services.</para></step>
</procedure>
<note><para>You can add a fixed range for IPv6 addresses to the <command>nova network-create</command>
command. Specify <option>public</option> or <option>private</option> after the
<option>network-create</option> parameter.</para>

<para>You can set IPv6 global routing prefix by using the <option>--fixed_range_v6</option>
parameter. The default value for the parameter is: <literal>fd00::/48</literal>.
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>When you use <literal>FlatDHCPManager</literal>, the command uses the original
<option>--fixed_range_v6</option> value. For example:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova network-create public --fixed-range-v4 10.0.2.0/24 --fixed-range-v6 fd00:1::/48</userinput></screen>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>When you use <literal>VlanManager</literal>, the command
increments the subnet ID to create subnet prefixes.
Guest VMs use this prefix to generate their IPv6 global
unicast address. For example:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova network-create public --fixed-range-v4 10.0.1.0/24 --vlan 100 --vpn 1000 --fixed-range-v6 fd00:1::/48</userinput></screen>
