Avoid tiny segment counts right after the segment length doubles - #78

#77) Just after binary_fuse_calculate_segment_length doubles the segment length, the filter could end up with very few segments (e.g. 12 segments of 1024 for 11.5k keys). Such a graph is close to a plain 3-wise XOR graph and the load was too near the peeling threshold: binary_fuse*_populate failed for 20-40% of random key sets around size 11,500 and ~3% around 12,350, with smaller but non-negligible failure rates after every doubling below ~40k keys. Halve the segment length until there are at least 32 segments (keeping segments >= 256). This only changes layouts for roughly 3.4k..58k keys, uses slightly less memory, and leaves construction and query speed unchanged. Add a regression test at the affected sizes.
