When running with a kernel that has IPv6 compiled out there is no
/proc/net/ipv6/ directory so trying to enable IPv6 fails and the
daemon can not start.
To resolve this only enable IPv6 forwarding when daemon is running with
IPv6 enabled.
Error seen with IPv6 compiled out and IPv6 disabled in config map is
level=fatal msg="Error when enabling sysctl parameters" error="could not open the sysctl file /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding: open /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding: no such file or directory" subsys=daemon
Fixes: 294cf66 ("daemon: Enable IP forwarding on start")
