tcp: try to avoid safer when ACKs are thinned

Add newly acked pkts EWMA. When ACK thinning occurs, select
between safer and unsafe cep delta in AccECN processing based
on it. If the packets ACKed per ACK tends to be large, don't
conservatively assume ACE field overflow.

This patch uses the existing 2-byte holes in the rx group for new
u16 variables withtout creating more holes. Below are the pahole
outcomes before and after this patch:

[BEFORE THIS PATCH]
struct tcp_sock {
    [...]
    u32                        delivered_ecn_bytes[3]; /*  2744    12 */
    /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

    [...]
    __cacheline_group_end__tcp_sock_write_rx[0];       /*  2816     0 */

    [...]
    /* size: 3264, cachelines: 51, members: 177 */
}

[AFTER THIS PATCH]
struct tcp_sock {
    [...]
    u32                        delivered_ecn_bytes[3]; /*  2744    12 */
    u16                        pkts_acked_ewma;        /*  2756     2 */
    /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */

    [...]
    __cacheline_group_end__tcp_sock_write_rx[0];       /*  2816     0 */

    [...]
    /* size: 3264, cachelines: 51, members: 178 */
}
