Nest: Improve GC strategy for rtables

Browse Source 
Use timer (configurable as 'gc period') to schedule routing table
GC/pruning to ensure that prune is done on time but not too often.

Randomize GC timers to avoid concentration of GC events from different
tables in one loop cycle.

Fix a bug that caused minimum inter-GC interval be 5 us instead of 5 s.

Make default 'gc period' adaptive based on number of routing tables,
from 10 s for small setups to 600 s for large ones.

In marge multi-table RS setup, the patch improved time of flushing
a downed peer from 20-30 min to <2 min and removed 40s latencies.

<tag><label id="rtable-gc-threshold">gc threshold <m/number/</tag>
Specify a minimum amount of removed networks that triggers a garbage
collection (GC) cycle. Default: 1000.
<tag><label id="rtable-gc-period">gc period <m/time/</tag>
Specify a period of time between consecutive GC cycles. When there is a
significant amount of route withdraws, GC cycles are executed repeatedly
with given period time (with some random factor). When there is just
small amount of changes, GC cycles are not executed. In extensive route
server setups, running GC on hundreds of full BGP routing tables can
take significant amount of time, therefore they should use higher GC
periods. Default: adaptive, based on number of routing tables in the
configuration. From 10 s (with <= 25 routing tables) up to 600 s (with
>= 1500 routing tables).
