A BGP import table contain all received routes from given BGP neighbor,
before application of import filters. It is also called <em/Adj-RIB-In/
in BGP terminology. BIRD BGP by default operates without import tables,
in which case received routes are just processed by import filters,
accepted ones are stored in the master table, and the rest is forgotten.
Enabling <cf/import table/ allows to store unprocessed routes, which can
be examined later by <cf/show route/, and can be used to reconfigure
import filters without full route refresh. Default: off.
