tcp: send loss probe after 1s if no RTT available
This patch makes TLP to use 1 sec timer by default when RTT is not available due to SYN/ACK retransmission or SYN cookies. Prior to this change, the lack of RTT prevents TLP so the first data packets sent can only be recovered by fast recovery or RTO. If the fast recovery fails to trigger the RTO is 3 second when SYN/ACK is retransmitted. With this patch we can trigger fast recovery in 1sec instead. Note that we need to check Fast Open more properly. A Fast Open connection could be (accepted then) closed before it receives the final ACK of 3WHS so the state is FIN_WAIT_1. Without the new check, TLP will retransmit FIN instead of SYN/ACK.
