// Unlike AllRec, this implementation ensures that route entries are visited in
// canonical prefix sort order. To achieve this,
// both the prefixes and children of the current node are gathered, sorted,
// and then interleaved during traversal based on logical octet positioning.
//
// The function first sorts relevant entries by their prefix index and address value,
// using a comparison function that ranks prefixes according to their mask length and position.
// Then it walks the trie, always yielding child entries that fall before the current prefix,
// followed by the prefix itself. Remaining children are processed once all prefixes have been visited.
//
// Prefixes are reconstructed on-the-fly from the traversal path, and iteration includes all child types:
// inner nodes (recursive descent), leaf nodes, and fringe (compressed) prefixes.
//
// The order is stable and predictable, making the function suitable for use cases
// like table exports, comparisons or serialization.
//
// Parameters:
//   - path: the current traversal path through the trie
//   - depth: current depth in the trie (0-based)
//   - is4: true for IPv4 processing, false for IPv6
//   - yield: callback function invoked for each prefix/value pair
