tcp: add TCP_CC_INFO socket option
Some Congestion Control modules can provide per flow information,
but current way to get this information is to use netlink.
Like TCP_INFO, let's add TCP_CC_INFO so that applications can
issue a getsockopt() if they have a socket file descriptor,
instead of playing complex netlink games.
Sample usage would be :
union tcp_cc_info info;
socklen_t len = sizeof(info);
if (getsockopt(fd, SOL_TCP, TCP_CC_INFO, &info, &len) == -1)
