Sample the prefix-length pages with bounded lookups, each prefix once (closes #66)

/prefixlength/{length} and /prefixlength6/{length} grouped every live route
of that length by prefix, shuffled all the prefixes and joined the routes
back, so a request grew with the number of routes and listed a prefix once
for each peer that shared its newest time.

Now a length with at most 5000 prefixes has them all read and shuffled, and
the page lists 500 of them. A longer one is sampled with random row-id
lookups on the mask length index, at most four per prefix asked for, filled
up from the shuffled prefixes if the lookups keep repeating. Each prefix is
shown once, with its newest route.
