fix: Add parameter to get_ips to avoid checking presence of tentative…

[lkleinax]

This pull request enhances the handling of tentative IPv6 addresses in the Linux IP feature, allowing for more flexible retrieval of IPs and improving test coverage. The main change is the addition of a check_tentative parameter to the get_ips method, which controls whether tentative addresses are filtered out. The tests have also been updated and expanded to verify both behaviors.

Feature enhancement

• Added a check_tentative parameter to the get_ips method in linux.py, enabling callers to choose whether to exclude tentative IP addresses when retrieving IPs.
• Updated the logic in get_ips to respect the new check_tentative parameter, so tentative addresses are only filtered when desired.

Test improvements

• Added a new test test_get_ips_tentative to verify that tentative addresses are excluded by default and included when check_tentative=False.
• Updated the existing test to check both behaviors (excluding and including tentative addresses) using the new parameter.

Pull request overview

This PR introduces a check_tentative parameter to the get_ips method to allow optional filtering of tentative IP addresses, resolving issue #37. By default, tentative IPs are still filtered out (maintaining backward compatibility), but callers can now explicitly request to include them when needed.

Key changes:

• Added check_tentative boolean parameter with a default value of True to the get_ips method
• Modified the tentative IP filtering logic to be conditional based on the new parameter
• Added comprehensive test coverage for both scenarios (with and without tentative IP filtering)

The docstring for get_ips should be updated to document the new check_tentative parameter, including its purpose, type, default value, and behavior when set to True vs False.
