[PATCH v3 RFC] Smack: Inform peer that IPv6 traffic has been blocked

In this patch we're sending an ICMPv6 message to a peer to
immediately inform it that making a connection is not possible.
In case of TCP connections, without this change, the peer
will be waiting until a connection timeout is exceeded.
