This adds the option to use the Round-Trip-Time (RTT) estimation
algorithm as it is implemented in the TCP implementation in Linux. It
looks like it outperforms the TCP default algorithm, so I enabled this
one by default. Also adds the option to change the RTO timeout
calculation to include more (or less) than 4 times the mdev (specified
as a power of 2. Left the default value to 2 (so, 4 mdevs), but 3 (8
mdevs) gives better results in my tests.

Delayed ACKs are now sent after twice the internal tick time. Fixes
initial ACK record (rcv_cr.seqno) being uninitialized (0) when the
first ACK was to be sent. Adds some FRCT metrics for number of

Unidirectional traffic has one of the peers only send bare FRCT
packets. These never set a DRF, since they have no sequence number.
At the receiver, all these ACKs and window updates were always dropped
as the receiver connection record was timed out.
Also fixes a SEGV if flow control kicks in (passing NULL timeout to
pthread_cond_timedwait).

The application will now handle incoming FRCT packets even if the
application never reads data from the flow (for instance servers). To
do this, it reserves an fset_t (id 0). When an FRCT-enabled flow is
created, it is automatically added to this fset. An rx thread will
listen for incoming events and perform necessary actions on the flow
if needed. If the FRCT flow is added to another user fset, it will be
handled by that user fset (and if the flow is removed from a user
fset, it will be re-added to the set with id 0 to be handled by the
rx_flow thread. The flow monitoring is handled by the same thread,
replacing the previous monitoring thread.

The frcti_filter was reading raw data from the buffers, causing the
frcti_rcv to operate directly on encrypted packets. It decrypt and
filter for invalid packets. I moved the function from frct to the
fqueue implementation and renamed it fqueue_filter as it filters
fqueues. Should be extended to filter out keepalives on non-FRCT
flows, as these will now still cause spurious wakeups.

Reading/writing to (N + 1)-flows from the IPCP was using a raw QoS flow
to bypass some functions in the ipcp_flow_read call. But this call was
broken for keepalive packets. Fixing the ipcp_flow_read call for
(N - 1) flows causes the IPCPs to drop 0-byte keepalive packets coming from
(N + 1) client flows.
>From now on, there is a dedicated call for (N + 1) reads/writes from
the IPCPs that's more efficient and cleaner. The (N + 1) flow internal
QoS is now also defaulted to a qos_np1 qosspec, instead of tampering
with the qosspec requested by the (N + 1) client.

This is the first step moving away from scheduling the FRCT and flow
monitoring functions as part of the IPC calls (flow_read / flow_write
/ fevent) and towards the more scalable (and far less complicated)
implementation to take care of these functions in separate threads.
If a process creates the first flow that requires FRCT, it will spin
up a thread to process events on the timerwheel (retransmissions and
delayed ACKs). This single thread lives until the last flow with FRCT
is deallocated.

It doesn't really make sense to manually and one-sidedly configure the
timeout of delayed acknowledgements, as setting it too high upsets the
peer's sRTT estimates. Even worse, it also causes a lot of spurious
retransmissions if it exceeds the sRTT mean deviation calculated by
the receiver. Compensating on bare acknowledgment for the ack delay
could improve the RTT estimate deviation, but not the spurious
retransmissions if it was set too high. This sets the delayed ack to
wait for a single RTT mean deviation. Probably needs more tweaking to
further reduce differences between the RTT estimates at the sender and
receiver, e.g. compensate the RTT estimate for delayed acks, or
increase the RTO to add 8 mdevs to sRTT instead of 4. However, it
looks like the mdev estimate is the trickiest one to get to sync, not
the RTT average. Linux reduces the sample weight for mdev from 1/4 to
1/32 in some cases, will give that a shot some day too to see if that
further align sRTT estimates. In any case, this patch already improves
things a lot.
Also fixes a bug where the sender was sending acknowlegments on the
first packets in flight for the 0 sequence number. The receiver
activity was measured in seconds but compared to a timeout value in
nanoseconds.
There's still a lot of spurious retransmissions that start after
actual packet loss occurs, I'm still investigating what causes it.

schedule was coinciding with the slot currently being processed

The timerwheel was retransmitting packets and the error check for
negative values of the rbuff allocation was instead checking for
non-zero values, causing a buffer allocation to succeed but the
program to continue down the unhappy path leaving that packet stuck in
the buffer unattended.

The maximum packet lifetime (MPL) is a property of the flow that needs
to be passed to the reliable transmission protocol (FRCP) for its
correct operation. Previously, the value of MPL was set fixed as one
of the (fixed) Delta-t parameters. This patch makes the MPL a property
of the layer, and it can now be set per layer-type at build time.

applications will not hang anymore. Note: reads keep work from flows
that are down until there are no more remaining packets in the buffer,

This adds flow liveness monitoring for flows, with a fixed timeout of
120s. I will make it configurable at flow allocation later on (timeout
needs to be communicated to the peer). If one peer dies, or doesn't
call any IPC calls (flow_write/flow_read/fevent) it will stop sending
keepalives and the other peer's read/writes will error on an
-EFLOWDOWN after the timeout expires.
Packets without a payload (0 length packets) are interpreted as
keepalive packets for the flow. They can be sent from any application,
but they will not trigger a message read at the receiver side (0 as a
return value on flow_read indicates a previous partial read has
completed at exactly the buffer size).

tried to unmount the generic mount and then remount under the ipcp

The read functions for the RIB will now receive the full path, instead
of only the entry name. For IPCPs, we organized the RIB in an
/<ipcp>/<component>/entries
structure with a directory per component, so we don't need the full
path at this point. For process flow information, it's a lot more
convenient to organize it the following way
/<pid>/<fd>/stat
We can then register/unregister the flow descriptor when the frct
instance is created, and for getting the stats, we'd know the flow
descriptor from the fuse file path. If we would create a file per flow
instead of a directory per flow, something like
/<pid>/flows/<fd>
we'd need to do additional bookkeeping to list the contents of that
directory (we would need to track all flows with an active FRCT
instance), that fuse knows because it tracks the directories.
