📝 Description
Expose the system-assigned
backend_ipv6_prefixreturned on NodeBalancer resources, so callers can use it when configuring inbound firewall rules for IPv6 backends. Cover populated and null values and confirm the read-only prefix is not sent in create or update requests.The
/backend_aclendpoint is not available yet and is intentionally excluded from this PR.✔️ How to Test
python -m pytest test/unit/objects/nodebalancers_test.py test/unit/linode_client_test.py -k 'backend_ipv6_prefix or test_get or test_type_and_backend_connectivity_not_in_put or test_create_with_ipv6_backend_connectivity'22 passed, 76 deselected. The added integration assertion was not run against the live API.
