[2.2] rsyslog is flooded with "no link-local IPv6 address for $IFACE" for link-down interfaces

rsyslog reports the following, many times per second, for interfaces which are link-down:

$ ip link show dev eno1
3: eno1: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 0c:c4:7a:c0:31:fa brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

$ ip addr list dev eno1
3: eno1: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 0c:c4:7a:c0:31:fa brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Notice the link is NO-CARRIER.

It seems like we should avoid starting the DHCP client if the link's NO-CARRIER bit is set.
