dccp: defer ccid_hc_tx_delete() at dismantle time

syszkaller team reported another problem in DCCP [1]

Problem here is that the structure holding RTO timer
(ccid2_hc_tx_rto_expire() handler) is freed too soon.

We can not use del_timer_sync() to cancel the timer
since this timer wants to grab socket lock (that would risk a dead lock)

Solution is to defer the freeing of memory when all references to
the socket were released. Socket timers do own a reference, so this
should fix the issue.
