Actually, peer-group usually serves another important function (and it
is the main reason this patch appears): eliminating the need to make BGP
update / filtering for each peer in peer-group.
bird is very fast, but it can be much faster when acting as RR.
However, caching sent updates / grouping routing updates is not so
trivial to do..
