mptcp: retrans optimization

scheduler: implement a "opportunistic retransmission"

The goal of the "opportunistic retransmission" is to quickly reinject
packets when we notice the window has just been closed on one path, see
the section 4.2 of:

https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/nsdi12/nsdi12-final125.pdf

This is implemented in mptcp.org, see mptcp_rcv_buf_optimization().

With the current API in the Upstream kernel, a new scheduler doesn't have
the ability to trigger a reinjection. Currently there are only hooks to
initiate reinjection when the MPTCP RTO fires.

The packet scheduler should be able to get more info:

    not just when MPTCP cwnd close or the seq num has increased (max
allowed MPTCP level seq num to be sent == last ack + (...))
    but also when there is a RTO at subflow level: maybe linked to

    scheduler: react when subflow-level events pop up (ACK/RTO) multipath-tcp#343

Note that the packet scheduler never significantly queue more than what
the cwnd of a subflow would accept: currently, the in-kernel only accepts
to queue up to the MPTCP level cwnd (a few more bytes due to round-up)

Closes: multipath-tcp#332
