gnrc_ipv6_nib: fix acquire race on gnrc_ipv6_nib_get_next_hop_l2addr()
When two threads use `gnrc_ipv6_nib_get_next_hop_l2addr()` to determine
a next hop (e.g. when there is both an IPv6 sender and a 6LoWPAN
fragment forwarder), a race condition may happen, where one thread
acquires the NIB and the other acquires the network interface resulting
in a deadlock. By releasing the NIB (if acquired) before trying to
acquire the network interface and re-acquiring the NIB after the network
interface is acquired, this is fixed.
