Reduce the default RBT hash table size to 16 entries (4 bits)
The hash table rework MRs (!3865, !3871) increased the default RBT hash table size from 64 to 65,536 entries (for 64-bit architectures, that is 512 bytes before vs. 524,288 bytes after). This works fine for RBTs used for cache databases, but since three separate RBT databases are created for every zone loaded (RRs, NSEC, NSEC3), memory usage would skyrocket when BIND 9 is used as an authoritative DNS server with many zones. The default RBT hash table size before the rework was 64 entries, this commit reduces it to 16 entries because our educated guess is that most zones are just couple of entries (SOA, NS, A, AAAA, MX) and rehashing small hash tables is actually cheap. The rework we did in the previous MRs tries to avoid growing the hash tables for big-to-huge caches where growing the hash table comes at a price because the whole cache needs to be locked.
