Refactor IPv6 disable logic and add 'disable' option

Replaces previous IPv6 disabling method with a dedicated 'disable' option, storing sysctl settings in /etc/sysctl.d/99-disable-ipv6.conf. Updates build and install scripts to clarify the difference between 'none' (no assignment) and 'disable' (fully disables IPv6), adds user warnings, and disables IPv6 listeners in nginx if present.
