lib: Don't use pointer to set FRCT flags
The fccntl call FRCTSFLAGS was using a pointer to a flags so set flags, which should just be a regular uint16_t. For instance, the FRCTLINGER flags can now be turned off using fccntl(fd, FRCTSFLAGS, FRCTFRESCNTL | FRCTFRTX) leaving only resource control (flow control, FRCTFRESCNTL) and retransmission enabled. Note that retransmission (FRCTFRTX) can't be enabled or disabled on a live flow, it will be set on flow allocation. Updates the man page for fccntl to add these FRCT options.
