Public bug reported:

[Impact]
The IPv6 configuration is being cleared even though `KeepConfiguration` is set 
to `yes`, causing the iSCSI backend system to hang during shutdown.

[Fix]
Systemd upstream has addressed this issue.
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/34989

[Test Plan]
1. Set up a machine with an iSCSI backend in an IPv6-only environment.  
2. Configure the `KeepConfiguration` option for each network device 
individually using drop-in configuration files (e.g., 
`/etc/systemd/network/*.network.d/*.conf`) or set the `"critical"` option to 
`true` in the Netplan configuration.  
3. Power off the machine and verify that the system does not hang.

[Where problems could occur]
The patches ensure that DHCPv6 addresses are preserved when 
`KeepConfiguration=yes` is set. However, if any regressions occur, the IPv6 
connection may be impacted.
