Christian Poessinger b7e61a03f0 interfaces: extend usage of new cmdinclude directive for bridge, bond, eth, peth, vxlan
Commit c46473a ("docs: add ..cmdinclude:: directive") added support for including
common text but only replacing individual labels so there can be source of truth
also for the documentation.

.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces {{ var0 }} <interface> ipv6 address autoconf
:abbr:`SLAAC (Stateless Address Autoconfiguration)`
:rfc:`4862`. IPv6 hosts can configure themselves automatically when connected
to an IPv6 network using the Neighbor Discovery Protocol via :abbr:`ICMPv6
(Internet Control Message Protocol version 6)` router discovery messages.
When first connected to a network, a host sends a link-local router
solicitation multicast request for its configuration parameters; routers
respond to such a request with a router advertisement packet that contains
Internet Layer configuration parameters.
.. note:: This method automatically disables IPv6 traffic forwarding on the
interface in question.
Example:
.. code-block:: none
set interfaces {{ var0 }} {{ var1 }} ipv6 address autoconf
