This lwIP configuration file has options that are common to all ports, and
the ports are updated to use this file. This change is a no-op, the lwIP
configuration remains the same for the four ports using this common file.
This reduces code duplication, keeps the ports in sync, and makes it easier
to update the configuration for all ports at once.

lwIP was recently updated in a89ac9e24a
to STABLE-2_2_0_RELEASE, and this introduced a change in the configuration
variable `DHCP_DOES_ARP_CHECK`, renaming it to `LWIP_DHCP_DOES_ACD_CHECK`.
This commit fixes the ports lwIP settings to use the new configuration
option.
Without this option, connecting to a WiFi access-point takes about 12.5
seconds. With this option (ie disabling DHCP ARP checks) connecting takes
about 4 seconds.
Tested on an RPI_PICO_W and PYBD_SF2.

Having IPv6 support is important, especially for IoT-Devices which might be
many, requiring individual IP-addresses. In particular direct access via
link-local addresses and having deterministic SLAAC-addresses can be quite
convenient. Also in IPv6-only networks or for connecting to IPv6-only
services, this is very useful.
For the Pico W, there is enough flash and RAM that enabling IPv6 by default
is the right choice.
Should IPv6 support in a network exist (i.e. there are Router
Advertisements), but not provide connectivity, connecting by domain name
should not be a problem as DNS will default to return the IPv4-address (if
that exists), unless reconfigured at runtime to prefer IPv6.
In any case a user can disable obtaining SLAAC-addresses with:
<nic>.ipconfig(autoconf6=False)
