[DCCP]: Handle timestamps on Request/Response exchange separately
In DCCP, timestamps can occur on packets anytime, CCID3 uses a timestamp(/echo) on the Request/Response
exchange. This patch addresses the following situation:
* timestamps are recorded on the listening socket;
* Responses are sent from dccp_request_sockets;
* suppose two connections reach the listening socket with very small time in between:
* the first timestamp value gets overwritten by the second connection request.
This is not really good, so this patch separates timestamps into
* those which are received by the server during the initial handshake (on dccp_request_sock);
* those which are received by the client or the client after connection establishment.
As before, a timestamp of 0 is regarded as indicating that no (meaningful) timestamp has been
received (in addition, a warning message is printed if hosts send 0-valued timestamps).
The timestamp-echoing now works as follows:
* when a timestamp is present on the initial Request, it is placed into dreq, due to the
call to dccp_parse_options in dccp_v{4,6}_conn_request;
* when a timestamp is present on the Ack leading from RESPOND => OPEN, it is copied over
from the request_sock into the child cocket in dccp_create_openreq_child;
* timestamps received on an (established) dccp_sock are treated as before.
Since Elapsed Time is measured in hundredths of milliseconds (13.2), the new dccp_timestamp()
function is used, as it is expected that the time between receiving the timestamp and
sending the timestamp echo will be very small against the wrap-around time. As a byproduct,
this allows smaller timestamping-time fields.
Furthermore, inserting the Timestamp Echo option has been taken out of the block starting with
'!dccp_packet_without_ack()', since Timestamp Echo can be carried on any packet (5.8 and 13.3).

[DCCP]: Add (missing) option parsing to request_sock processing
This adds option-parsing code to processing of Acks in the listening state
on request_socks on the server, serving two purposes
(i) resolves a FIXME (removed);
(ii) paves the way for feature-negotiation during connection-setup.
There is an intended subtlety here with regard to dccp_check_req:
Parsing options happens only after testing whether the received packet is
a retransmitted Request. Otherwise, if the Request contained (a possibly
large number of) feature-negotiation options, recomputing state would have to
happen each time a retransmitted Request arrives, which opens the door to an
easy DoS attack. Since in a genuine retransmission the options should not be
different from the original, reusing the already computed state seems better.
The other point is - if there are timestamp options on the Request, they will
not be answered; which means that in the presence of retransmission (likely
due to loss and/or other problems), the use of Request/Response RTT sampling
is suspended, so that startup problems here do not propagate.
