tcp: fix TCP_USER_TIMEOUT with zero window
The TCP session does not terminate with TCP_USER_TIMEOUT when data remain untransmitted due to zero window. The number of unanswered zero-window probes (tcp_probes_out) is reset to zero with incoming acks irrespective of the window size, as described in tcp_probe_timer(): RFC 1122 4.2.2.17 requires the sender to stay open indefinitely as long as the receiver continues to respond probes. We support this by default and reset icsk_probes_out with incoming ACKs. This counter, however, is the wrong one to be used in calculating the duration that the window remains closed and data remain untransmitted. Thanks to Jonathan Maxwell <jmaxwell37@gmail.com> for diagnosing the actual issue. In this patch a new timestamp is introduced for the socket in order to track the elapsed time for the zero-window probes that have not been answered with any non-zero window ack.
