tcp: lower congestion window on Fast Open SYNACK timeout
TCP sender would use congestion window of 1 packet on the second SYN and SYNACK timeout except passive TCP Fast Open. This makes passive TFO too aggressive and unfair during congestion at handshake. This patch fixes this issue so TCP (fast open or not, passive or active) always conforms to the RFC6298. Note that tcp_enter_loss() is called only once during recurring timeouts. This is because during handshake, high_seq and snd_una are the same so tcp_enter_loss() would incorrect set the undo state variables multiple times.
