tcp: fix SO_RCVLOWAT and RCVBUF autotuning
Applications might use SO_RCVLOWAT on TCP socket hoping to receive one [E]POLLIN event only when a given amount of bytes are ready in socket receive queue. Problem is that receive autotuning is not aware of this constraint, meaning sk_rcvbuf might be too small to allow all bytes to be stored. Add a new (struct proto_ops)->set_rcvlowat method so that a protocol can override the default setsockopt(SO_RCVLOWAT) behavior.
