Fix: hash table growth (for small tables) should be limited (v2)

Buckets with many entries encountered in a hash table could cause it to
grow to a large size, beyond the scope for which this mechanism is
expected to play a role when node accounting is available. Indeed, when
the hash table grows to larger size, split-counter node accounting is
expected to deal with resize/shrink rather than relying on an heuristic
based on the largest bucket size.

This is fixing an issue where we see hash tables sometimes reaching 65k
entries index (65536*8 = 524288 bytes) for a workload limited to adding
1000 entries and then removing all of them, done in a loop (random
keys).
