The tests confirmed the issue that Iain reported and that the fix works.
Also no other issues popped up in the NM test using it.
autopkgtest [08:47:12]: @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ summary

killswitches-no-urfkill PASS
urfkill-integration  PASS

And while https://bileto.ubuntu.com/excuses/4266/groovy.html looks
pretty bad after we skip the known badtests not much is left and of
those nothing seems to be due to this change.

I replied upstream hoping they will accept the change so we can then push it to 
groovy (sooner or later we have to even without upstream saying "yes" but I'd 
prefer to pick exactly what is committed).
=> http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/pipermail/dnsmasq-discuss/2020q3/014387.html

Actually since this holds back other things, let us upload to groovy now
(it essentially reverts to old behavior) but come back in a week to
potentially update to whatever upstream did by then.

Title:
  [2.82 regression] router announcements have 'forever' lifetime by
  default

Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The default lifetime was changed to 1 day in 2.82 in the change
  corresponding to this changelog entry:

          Change default lease time for DHCPv6 to one day.

  Fine, but the same commit also did this:

        Alter calculation of preferred and valid times in router
        advertisements, so that these do not have a floor applied
        of the lease time in the dhcp-range if this is not explicitly
        specified and is merely the default.

  And that change is buggy and causes advertisements to have infinite
  lifetime, when you are using the default.
