Large URL table alias expansion no longer works
0%
Description
At some point after the nightly build of pfSense-CE-2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-20200831-1250.iso, the URL table alias pointing to https://files.pfsense.org/lists/fullbogons-ipv6.txt no longer works. After a filter reload, it results in the "too many elements" error, and even expanding the alias table limit to several millions does not work. This indicates the alias expansion method has changed since that nightly release.
This currently working on 2.4.5-p1 and was working on previous nightly releases.

Error:
There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:21: cannot define table bogons6: too many elements. - The line in question reads [21]: table <bogons6> persist file "/var/db/aliastables/bogons6.txt"
Seems it broke after this commit:
https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commit/bff96b22efab32c8fa99acd4f970bacd83e19f54
To reproduce the error:
1. Using the latest 2.5.0 release, create a URL table alias under "Firewall / Aliases"
2. Give the alias a name and point it to the URL https://files.pfsense.org/lists/fullbogons-ipv6.txt
3. Click save, then click apply.
4. The error can be checked by going to "Status / Filter Reload"
