Actually there is: just use "static" in place of ra-stateless or slaac. 
Since you haven't defined any static addresses, address allocation by 
DHCP will not happen, but replies to information-request packets will.

This is a sort-of unintended effect, and it might be good to add 
"stateless" as a synonym for "static"
