Add a type to represent the NDP Prefix Information option.

This change is in preparation for NDP Prefix Discovery and SLAAC where the stack
will need to handle NDP Prefix Information options.

Tests: Test that given an NDP Prefix Information option buffer, correct values
are returned by the field getters.
