ipv6: add exception routes to GC list in rt6_insert_exception
Commit 5eb902b ("net/ipv6: Remove expired routes with a separated list of routes.") introduced a separated list for managing route expiration via the GC timer. However, it missed adding exception routes (created by ip6_rt_update_pmtu() and rt6_do_redirect()) to this GC list. As a result, these exceptions were never considered for expiration and removal, leading to stale entries persisting in the routing table. This patch fixes the issue by calling fib6_add_gc_list() in rt6_insert_exception(), ensuring that exception routes are properly tracked and garbage collected when expired.
