tcp: avoid unconditional congestion window undo on SYN retransmit
Previously if an active TCP open has SYN timeout, it always undo the cwnd upon receiving the SYNACK. This is because tcp_clean_rtx_queue would reset tp->retrans_stamp when SYN is acked, which fools then tcp_try_undo_loss and tcp_packet_delayed. Addressing this issue is required to properly support undo for spurious SYN timeout. Fixing this is tricky -- for active TCP open tp->retrans_stamp records the time when the handshake starts, not the first retransmission time as the name may suggest. The simplest fix is for tcp_packet_delayed to ensure it is valid before comparing with other timestamp. One side effect of this change is active TCP Fast Open that incurred SYN timeout. Upon receiving a SYN-ACK that only acknowledged the SYN, it would immediately retransmit unacknowledged data in tcp_ack() because the data is marked lost after SYN timeout. But the retransmission would have an incorrect ack sequence number since rcv_nxt has not been updated yet tcp_rcv_synsent_state_process(), the retransmission needs to properly handed by tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack() like before.
