next: switch to openwrt-25.12 - issues with odhcp6 and udhcpc #3707
Description
While this is currently not high priority, as we first have to wait for openwrt-25.12 to be released, they are quite far with the latest rc.
It is useful to already get an idea of how the upgrade to the upcoming openwrt release looks like.
For this, the next branch exists:
https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/tree/next
I just build an x86-64 image from this and and still had problems from odhcp6 and udhcpc.
