Use resevior sampling in auto-dictionary tracing and collection.
This is to avoid biases that favors later entries that always overwrite the earilers.
As side-effects, auto-dictionary tracing tables are filled randomly only after they become full of entries, and it saves the memory copying when it randomly decides to skip an entry.
Also the table cleanup is now lazy, and it clean only the previously used entries. It should be much faster than the previous method of zero-filling all the entries.
