[TCP]: Add Scalable TCP congestion control module.
This patch implements Tom Kelly's Scalable TCP congestion control algorithm
for the modular framework.
The algorithm has some nice scaling properties, and has been used a fair bit
in research, though is known to have significant fairness issues, so it's not
really suitable for general purpose use.
