[c-nsp] Growing BGP tables

[Rodney Dunn]

I'm trying to think through this and how/if
it could be implemented.

I don't see how you can do it without holding
a full copy of all updates because you are
making a decision for one update based on
matches of all other updates which is
back to storing a shadow copy.
