Re: Disable IPV6 in Snort 2.9.4.6

[Joel Esler <jesler () sourcefire com>]

Support for IPv6 was hardened in Snort 2.9.4, and is always enabled now.
Reference from the release notes/email when Snort 2.9.4 was released:

* Consolidation of IPv6 -- now only a single build supports both
  IPv4 & IPv6, and removal of the IPv4 "only" code paths.

Also, note that MPLS is enabled by default so the --enable-mpls is
not needed.
