tcp: setup timestamp offset when write_seq already set

Found that when randomized tcp offsets are enabled (by default)
TCP client can still start new connections without them. Later,
if server does active close and re-uses sockets in TIME-WAIT
state, new SYN from client can be rejected on PAWS check inside
tcp_timewait_state_process(), because either tw_ts_recent or
rcv_tsval doesn't really have an offset set.

Here is how to reproduce it with LTP netstress tool:
    netstress -R 1 &
    netstress -H 127.0.0.1 -lr 1000000 -a1

    [...]
    < S  seq 1956977072 win 43690 TS val 295618 ecr 459956970
    > .  ack 1956911535 win 342 TS val 459967184 ecr 1547117608
    < R  seq 1956911535 win 0 length 0
+1. < S  seq 1956977072 win 43690 TS val 296640 ecr 459956970
    > S. seq 657450664 ack 1956977073 win 43690 TS val 459968205 ecr 296640
