NcpBase: Implement get handler for IPV6_LL_ADDR spinel property (#1826)

This commit add a new API `otThreadGetLinkLocalIp6Address()` to
get the Thread link-local address (which is is derived using
IEEE802.15.4 Extended Address as Interface Identifier).  The new
API is then used to implement the get handler for spinel property
`IPV6_LL_ADDR` in `NcpBase` class.
