Log message:
Properly handle nexthop state changes in the decision process

In rev 1.90 of rde_decide.c the re->active cache of the best prefix was
replaced with a call to prefix_best(). This introduced a bug because the
nexthop state at that time may have changed already. As a result when
a nexthop became unreachable prefix_evaluate() had oldbest = NULL and
newbest = NULL and did not withdraw the prefix from FIB and Adj-RIB-Out.

To fix this store the nexthop state per prefix and introduce
prefix_evaluate_nexthop() which removes the prefix from the decision list,
updates the nexthop state of the prefix and reinserts the prefix. Doing
this ensures that prefix_best() always reports the same result once the
decison process is done. prefix_best() and prefix_eligible() only depend
on data stored on the prefix itself.
