Jordan Whited 960cb50469 wgengine/wgcfg: size crypto & per-peer queues by CPU factor

To better balance throughput vs backlogged packet memory consumption.

These changes reduce peak RSS in UDP TX benchmarks that previously
regressed in 8fc6dca. All other benchmarks remain largely unchanged.
Netstack benchmarks are new, with back-tested results from 1e69418.

The following throughput and peak RSS benchmarks were performed with
iperf3 between two Intel i5-12400 nodes running Ubuntu 24.04 (Linux 6.8).

The UDP benchmarks did not use UDP GSO on the sender, so they were
roughly equivalent to single packet I/O through wireguard-go.

TCP/1 signifies one TCP stream; TCP/128 signifies 128 parallel TCP
streams. -NS signifies netstack, and -RX/-TX signify the side netstack
was running on, with the other being a natural TUN.

Change column is calculated against the oldest baseline (1e69418).
