Note: here, synproxy will send a SYN to the real server, as the 3whs was
completed sucessfully. Instead of a syn/ack that we can intercept, we instead
received a reset packet from the real backend, that we forward to the original
client. However, we don't use the correct sequence number, so the reset is not
effective in closing the connection coming from the client.
