Comments describing how to properly use the new lock_add functions
and its respective companion.

This cleans up the timer code in TCP and also makes it so we do not
take the INFO lock *unless* we are really going to delete the TCB.

This small change adopts the excellent suggestion for using named
structures in the add of a new tcp-stack that came in late to me
via email after the last commit. It also makes it so that a new
stack may optionally get a callback during a retransmit
timeout. This allows the new stack to clear specific state (think
sack scoreboards or other such structures).

are currently left being maintained but probably are no longer needed.

FreeBSD previously provided route caching for TCP (and UDP). Re-add
route caching for TCP, with some improvements. In particular, invalidate
the route cache if a new route is added, which might be a better match.
The cache is automatically invalidated if the old route is deleted.

Historically we have two fields in tcpcb to describe sender MSS: t_maxopd,
and t_maxseg. This dualism emerged with T/TCP, but was not properly cleaned
up after T/TCP removal. After all permutations over the years the result is
that t_maxopd stores a minimum of peer offered MSS and MTU reduced by minimum
protocol header. And t_maxseg stores (t_maxopd - TCPOLEN_TSTAMP_APPA) if
timestamps are in action, or is equal to t_maxopd otherwise. That's a very
rough estimate of MSS reduced by options length. Throughout the code it
was used in places, where preciseness was not important, like cwnd or
ssthresh calculations.

With this change:

- t_maxopd goes away.
- t_maxseg now stores MSS not adjusted by options.
- new function tcp_maxseg() is provided, that calculates MSS reduced by
options length. The functions gives a better estimate, since it takes
into account SACK state as well.
