[PATCH] fib: fix adding default route overwriting entire table

When FIB contains any route covering last ip address
(255.255.255.255), upon adding a new default route
the entire fib table will be overwritten with corresponding
default route next hop.

Previous fix added check for ledge against 0 for case
if default route is added as a first route, however
this check was also erroneously triggered in case when
ledge was wrapped around the address space
(this would happen if FIB contains any route covering
last possible address - 255.255.255.255).

This fix prevents wrap around from happening.
