tipc: reduce duplicate packets for unicast traffic

For unicast transmission, the current NACK sending althorithm is over-
active that forces the sending side to retransmit a packet that is not
really lost but just arrived at the receiving side with some delay, or
even retransmit same packets that have already been retransmitted
before. As a result, many duplicates are observed also under normal
condition, ie. without packet loss.

One example case is: node1 transmits 1 2 3 4 10 5 6 7 8 9, when node2
receives packet #10, it puts into the deferdq. When the packet #5 comes
it sends NACK with gap [6 - 9]. However, shortly after that, when
packet #6 arrives, it pulls out packet #10 from the deferfq, but it is
still out of order, so it makes another NACK with gap [7 - 9] and so on
... Finally, node1 has to retransmit the packets 5 6 7 8 9 a number of
times, but in fact all the packets are not lost at all, so duplicates!

This commit reduces duplicates by changing the condition to send NACK,
also restricting the retransmissions on individual packets via a timer
of about 1ms. However, it also needs to say that too tricky condition
for NACKs or too long timeout value for retransmissions will result in
performance reducing! The criterias in this commit are found to be
effective for both the requirements to reduce duplicates but not affect
performance.

The tipc_link_rcv() is also improved to only dequeue skb from the link
deferdq if it is expected (ie. its seqno <= rcv_nxt).

tipc: improve TIPC throughput by Gap ACK blocks

During unicast link transmission, it's observed very often that because
of one or a few lost/dis-ordered packets, the sending side will fastly
reach the send window limit and must wait for the packets to be arrived
at the receiving side or in the worst case, a retransmission must be
done first. The sending side cannot release a lot of subsequent packets
in its transmq even though all of them might have already been received
by the receiving side.
That is, one or two packets dis-ordered/lost and dozens of packets have
to wait, this obviously reduces the overall throughput!

This commit introduces an algorithm to overcome this by using "Gap ACK
blocks". Basically, a Gap ACK block will consist of <ack, gap> numbers
that describes the link deferdq where packets have been got by the
receiving side but with gaps, for example:

link deferdq: [1 2 3 4 10 11 13 14 15 20]
--> Gap ACK blocks: <4, 5>, <11, 1>, <15, 4>, <20, 0>

The Gap ACK blocks will be sent to the sending side along with the
traditional ACK or NACK message. Immediately when receiving the message
the sending side will now not only release from its transmq the packets
ack-ed by the ACK but also by the Gap ACK blocks! So, more packets can
be enqueued and transmitted.
In addition, the sending side can now do "multi-retransmissions"
according to the Gaps reported in the Gap ACK blocks.

The new algorithm as verified helps greatly improve the TIPC throughput
especially under packet loss condition.

So far, a maximum of 32 blocks is quite enough without any "Too few Gap
ACK blocks" reports with a 5.0% packet loss rate, however this number
can be increased in the furture if needed.

Also, the patch is backward compatible.
