sctp: Update max.burst implementation
Current implementation of max.burst ends up limiting new data during cwnd decay period. The decay is happening becuase the connection is idle and we are allowed to fill the congestion window. The point of max.burst is to limit micro-bursts in response to large acks. This still happens, as max.burst is still applied to each transmit opportunity. It will also apply if a very large send is made (greater then allowed by burst).
