Here we update the modular tcp to be able to switch to an
alternate TCP stack in other then the closed state (pre-listen/connect).
The idea is that *if* that is supported by the alternate stack, it
is asked if its ok to switch. If it approves the "handoff" then we
allow the switch to happen. Also the fini() function now gets a flag
to tell if you are switching away *or* the tcb is destroyed. The
init() call into the alternate stack is moved to the end so the
tcb is more fully formed before the init transpires.

Provide new socket option TCP_CCALGOOPT, which stands for TCP congestion
control algorithm options. The argument is variable length and is opaque
to TCP, forwarded directly to the algorithm's ctl_output method.

Provide new includes directory netinet/cc, where algorithm specific
headers can be installed.

The new API doesn't yet have any in tree consumers.

Add sysctl tunable net.inet.tcp.initcwnd_segments to specify initial congestion
window in number of segments on fly. It is set to 10 segments by default.

Remove net.inet.tcp.experimental.initcwnd10 which is now redundant. Also remove
the parent node net.inet.tcp.experimental as it's not needed anymore and also
because it was not well thought out.
