lib: Complete retransmission logic
This completes the retransmission (automated repeat-request, ARQ) logic, sending (delayed) ACK messages when needed. On deallocation, flows will ACK try to retransmit any remaining unacknowledged messages (unless the FRCTFLINGER flag is turned off; this is on by default). Applications can safely shut down as soon as everything is ACK'd (i.e. the current Delta-t run is done). The activity timeout is now passed to the IPCP for it to sleep before completing deallocation (and releasing the flow_id). That should be moved to the IRMd in due time. The timerwheel is revised to be multi-level to reduce memory consumption. The resolution bumps by a factor of 1 << RXMQ_BUMP (16) and each level has RXMQ_SLOTS (1 << 8) slots. The lowest level has a resolution of (1 << RXMQ_RES) (20) ns, which is roughly a millisecond. Currently, 3 levels are defined, so the largest delay we can schedule at each level is: Level 0: 256ms Level 1: 4s Level 2: about a minute.
