Description

Far more difficult companion to #5189. We want to be able to see IP allocation over time, broken out by IP pool and probably also by silo, so we will need to track allocations and deallocations in real time like we do for compute, storage, and memory.

Research direction

Start by reading companion issue #5189 and comparing how compute, storage, and memory allocations are tracked in real time. Trace how allocation and deallocation data is represented by IP pool and silo, and consider the time-series behavior required for those dimensions. Done means IP allocation changes can be viewed over time with those breakdowns.
