opensm: Reduce heap consumption by unicast routing tables (LFTs)

From ib_types.h

Heap memory consumption by the unicast and multicast routing tables can be reduced.

Using valgrind --tool=massif (for heap profiling), there are couple of places that consume most of the heap memory:
->38.75% (11,206,656B) 0x43267E: osm_switch_new (osm_switch.c:134)
->12.89% (3,728,256B) 0x40F8C9: osm_mcast_tbl_init (osm_mcast_tbl.c:96)

osm_switch_new (osm_switch.c:108):

       p_sw->lft = malloc(IB_LID_UCAST_END_HO + 1);

From ib_types.h
#define IB_LID_UCAST_END_HO 0xBFFF

The LFT can be allocated after LID assignment, once the number of LIDs assigned is known.

So it looks like for cluster of 2-4K with an LMC of 0 about 40% (!!!) of the heap memory can be saved:

- 39% used by LFTs, each with 48K entries - SM can allocate 4K entries instead.

Should LFTs only be increased in size and never reduced in size ?

A similar subsequent change will do this for MFTs.

Changes since v1:
Basic approach changed to not do in chunks but rather allocate LFT once LID assignment is completed
