This commit introduces a way for MRP to report reachability for the given neighbor device. It helps to save power consumption by avoiding ICMPv6 ND probing as per the guidelines in RFC 4861 (section 7.3).

DNM as this depends on Zephyr's commit that is not yet cherry-picked.

As there are too many dependencies in upstream Zephyr, let's merge it to NCS 2.7.0 after Zephyr upmerge.
