…h extcomm If the community comes as non-transitive, we incorrectly take it and never consider using for weighted load balancing. draft-ietf-idr-link-bandwidth-24 defines: If a BGP speaker receives a route with more than one Link Bandwidth Extended Communities and uses the route to compute weighted load balancing, it SHOULD use the extended community with the lowest bandwidth value (including zero), ignoring the transitivity. Implementations MAY provide configuration to change the above preference. The ordering is already done at the ingestion ecommunity_parse() when we receive a new community/value. So we always take the lowest one.
