[issue17400] ipaddress should make it easy to identify rfc6598 addresses

[Nick Coghlan]

Thanks Peter, just a couple more tweaks:

- tests need to ensure the carrier private range is neither global *nor*
private (it looks to me like they will still show up as private at this
point)
- looks like the docs for is_private still need to be restored (and mention
the subtlety about deliberately excluding "carrier private").
- this is probably worthy of a What's New entry mentioning the new attribute

My apologies for not finding time to review the original patch more
closely, as that could have saved you a bit of the subsequent running
around...
