ip: Use a synthetic buffer for iproute

Take a look at how routeread() works.  It's a mess.  Using getline() on it
would occasionally fail - usually with one line that was the size of the
iproute file, with no spaces or \n, and apparently a leading 0.

Instead, this just does what most sythetic files with actual content should
do: alloc a buffer, generate it once, then do reads from that buffer.  This
is safe from situations where the synth file changes in between reads
(which glibc often does even for short files).

Note ipwrite() did not change.  Your writes are commands, not attempts to
change the synth file manually.
