rib: size the routing table for the routes the peers are expected to send
The routing table's shards started empty and grew as routes came in, each growth moving every row of the shard into a table twice the size. In a profile of the daemon taking in a full table, the growth showed as up to a seventh of the session's time, and the daemon's resident memory had the old and the new table of each shard side by side for a moment. This change adds `RibTable::expect_prefixes`, which reserves room for that many prefixes spread over the shards, and has the server call it at startup with the largest `expected_routes` among the configured peers: the prefixes of several full tables are mostly the same ones. Without `expected_routes` nothing changes. The `full_table` benchmark does the same unless `BENCH_PRESIZE=0`. Measured, the saving in time is within the run-to-run noise: in the Linux VM one peer's table is in the routing table in 0.81 s instead of 0.89 s, and the kernel is in step at about the same time as before; three pairs of runs of the benchmark on a Mac average 0.33 s against 0.35 s. The profile's attribution to the growth was mostly sampling skid. The memory saving is real: 442 MiB resident with one peer's table in instead of 483 MiB, and 626 MiB instead of 632 MiB with four. Also: the profiling script printed nothing for the kernel's change counts because it asked `/metrics` for them; the endpoint is `/metricz`. With that fixed, a four-peer load shows 1.25 million installs for 1.23 million prefixes: the journal already gives the kernel task only the latest change of a prefix when it lags, so no further coalescing of installs is called for. Documentation: `expected_routes` in the configuration reference, the neighbor guide and the proto comment say that the table is sized by it; the testing guide's VM results are brought up to date. Testing: a table test checks that the room is there and is kept; the workspace tests pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
