core: wait with "startup complete" for both IPv4 and IPv6 dynamic configuration
In case of DHCP4, DHCP6 and/or SLAAC, delay "startup complete" until
both IPv4 and IPv6 are ready. This especially has an effect on
nm-online/NetworkManager-wait-online.service, which blocks until
configuration of both IPv4 and IPv6 is ready.
We queue a pending_action when automatic configuration starts and
remove it again, when we receive an address. Before, "startup complete"
was reached when either one of the two IP protocols was configured.
