[DCCP] ccid3: Shift window counter computation
This puts the window counter computation [RFC 4342, 8.1] into a separate
function which is called whenever a new packet is ready for immediate
transmission in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet.
Justification:
The window counter update was previously computed after the packet was sent. This has
two drawbacks, both fixed by this patch:
1) re-compute another timestamp almost directly after the packet was sent (expensive),
2) the CCVal for the window counter is needed at the instant the packet is sent.
Further details:
The initialisation of the window counter is left in the state NO_SENT, as before.
The algorithm will do nothing if either RTT is initialised to 0 (which is ok) or if
the RTT value remains below 4 microseconds (which is almost pathological).
