[RFC 2/3] test/fib6: add reproducer for tbl8 reservation drift

Regression test for the rsvd_tbl8s drift bug fixed in
"fib6: fix tbl8 reservation drift in trie".
The test installs a /28 parent and three /48 children, deletes the
/28 parent while children are alive, then deletes each /48 child.
One asymmetric cycle wraps rsvd_tbl8s past zero (net -2 per cycle).
The probe is a /28 ADD (depth_diff=1) so UINT32_MAX-1 + 1 exceeds
the pool size without further uint32_t overflow.
Without the fix, the final ADD /28 fails with -ENOSPC.
With the fix, it succeeds.

+ * Reproducer for the rsvd_tbl8s drift bug. depth_diff used to maintain
+ * rsvd_tbl8s is computed from the current RIB state, so it is not
+ * invariant between the ADD of a prefix and its later DEL when a
+ * covering parent prefix is removed in between.
+ *
+ * Layout: one /28 parent (fcde::/28) and three /48 siblings under it
+ * (fcde:0:6000::/48, fcde:1:6000::/48, fcde:2:6000::/48). The second
+ * hextet's high 12 bits are zero, so the three /48 IPs all fall inside
+ * the /28.
+ *
+ * One asymmetric sequence is enough to wrap the counter:
+ * ADD /28 rsvd_tbl8s += 1
+ * ADD /48 child_0,1,2 (with /28 parent) rsvd_tbl8s += 2 each (+6)
+ * DEL /28 (sibling /48 found) rsvd_tbl8s -= 0
+ * DEL /48 child_0,1,2 (no parent left) rsvd_tbl8s -= 3 each (-9)
+ *
+ * Net: -2. Starting from 0, rsvd_tbl8s wraps to UINT32_MAX-1. The
+ * next ADD of a prefix longer than /24 then unconditionally fails the
+ * pre-check (rsvd_tbl8s + depth_diff > number_tbl8s), even though the
+ * pool is empty.
