Bluetooth: 6lowpan: Fix memory corruption of ipv6 destination address

The memcpy of ipv6 header destination address to the skb control block
(sbk->cb) in header_create() results in currupted memory when bt_xmit()
is issued. The skb->cb is "released" in the return of header_create()
making room for lower layer to minipulate the skb->cb.

The value retrieved in bt_xmit is not persistent across header creation
and sending, and the lower layer will overwrite portions of skb->cb,
making the copied destination address wrong.

The memory corruption will lead to non-working multicast as the first 4
bytes of the copied destination address is replaced by a value that
resolves into a non-multicast prefix.

This fix removes the dependency on the skb control block between header
creation and send, by moving the destination address memcpy to the send
function path (setup_create, which is called from bt_xmit).
