Currently FRR when it has two nexthop groups:
A
nexthop 1 weight 5
nexthop 2 weight 6
nexthop 3 weight 7
B
nexthop 1 weight 3
nexthop 2 weight 4
nexthop 3 weight 5
We end up with 5 singleton nexthops and two groups:

id 181818169 group 71,255/127,127/128,170 proto 194
This is not a desirable state to be in. If you have a
link flapping in the network and weights are changing
rapidly you end up with a large number of singleton
nexthops that are being used by the nexthop groups.
This fills up asic space and clutters the table.
Additionally singleton nexthops cannot have any weight
and the fact that you attempt to create a singleton
nexthop with different weights means nothing to the
linux kernel( or any asic dplane ). Let's modify
the code to always create the singleton nexthops
without a weight and then just creating the
NHG's that use the singletons with the appropriate
weight.
