The `IPV6` format represents an IP v6 address as governed by [RFC 4291][]. It
**must** only be used on a field of type `string`.

Such a value **may** be normalized by the service to entirely lowercase letters,
and zero-padded partial and empty octets. For example, the value `2001:DB8::`
would be normalized to `2001:0db8:0:0`.
Such a value **may** be normalized by the service to entirely lowercase letters
with zeros compressed, following [RFC 5952][]. For example, the value
`2001:0DB8:0::0` would be normalized to `2001:db8::`.

As such, equivalence comparison **must not** be done via primitive text
comparison. Instead, an [RFC 4291][] compliant implementation **must** be used.
