RIP Timers

Update: how often to send updates in seconds
Invalid: how many seconds, since seeing a valid update, to consider the route invalid, and placing the route into hold down
Hold Down: Once in hold down, how long (in seconds) to “not believe” any equal or less impressive (worse) route updates for routes that are in hold down
Flush: how many seconds, since the last valid update, until we throw that route in the trash (garbage collection for un-loved non-updated routes)
