1. change all window relative value type to uint32_t
2. move window range validity check(UINT16_MAX) before assembling TCP header

Do not bother to preserve segment boundaries in the tcp
readahead queues.
* Avoid wasting the tail IOB space for each segments.
Instead, pack the newly received data into the tail space
of the last IOB. Also, advertise the tail space as
a part of the window.
* Use IOB chain directly. Eliminate IOB queue overhead.
* Allow to accept only a part of a segment.
* This change improves the memory efficiency.
And probably more importantly, allows less-confusing
recv window advertisement behavior.
Previously, even when we advertise N bytes window,
we often couldn't actually accept N bytes. Depending on
the segment sizes and IOB configurations, it was causing
segment drops.
Also, the previous code was moving the right edge of the
window back and forth too often, even when nothing in
the system was competing on the IOBs. Shrinking the
window that way is a kinda well known recipe to confuse
the peer stack.
* Fixes the case where the window was small but not zero.
* tcp_recvfrom: Remove tcp_ackhandler. Instead, simply schedule TX for
a possible window update and make tcp_appsend decide.
* Replace rcv_wnd (the last advertized window size value) with
rcv_adv. (the window edge sequence number advertized to the peer)
rcv_wnd was complicated to deal with because its base (rcvseq) is
also moving.
* tcp_appsend: Send a window update even if there are no other reasons
to send an ack.
Namely, send an update if it increases the window by
* 2 * mss
* or the half of the max possible window size

Add a fallback mechanism to ensure that there are still available
iobs for an free connection, Guarantees all connections will have
a minimum threshold iob to keep the connection not be hanged.

sched/wqueue/kwork_notifier.c: Redesign some data structures. struct works_s must appear at the beginning of the notifier entry structure. That is because it contains the work queue indices. This solves a harfault issue.
net/tcp/tcp_netpoll.c: tcp_iob_work() needs to free the allocated argument when it is finished.
net/tcp/tcp_send_buffered.c: Extend psock_tcp_cansend() so that it also requires that at least on IOB is also avaialble.
mm/iob: iob_navail() was returning the number of free IOB chain queue entries, not the number of free IOBs. Completely misnamed.
net/tcp/tcp_netpoll.c: Add logic to receive notifications when IOBs are freed (Needs CONFIG_NET_TCP_WRITE_BUFFERS and CONFIG_IOB_NOTIFIER). At present, does nothing because the logic in in psock_tcp_cansend() does not check for the availability of IOBs. That will change.
This makes the user interface a little hostile. People thing of an MTU of 1500 bytes, but the corresponding packet is really 1514 bytes (including the 14 byte Ethernet header). A more friendly solution would configure the MTU (as before), but then derive the packet buffer size by adding the MAC header length. Instead, we define the packet buffer size then derive the MTU.
The MTU is not common currency in networking. On the wire, the only real issue is the MSS which is derived from MTU by subtracting the IP header and TCP header sizes (for the case of TCP). Now it is derived for the PKTSIZE by subtracting the IP header, the TCP header, and the MAC header sizes. So we should be all good and without the recurring 14 byte error in MTU's and MSS's.
Squashed commit of the following:
Trivial update to fix some spacing issues.
net/: Rename several macros containing _MTU to _PKTSIZE.
net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_SLIP_MTU to CONFIG_NET_SLIP_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU. These are not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. These are the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_6LOWPAN_MTU to CONFIG_NET_6LOWPAN_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU. These are not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. These are the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_ETH_MTU to CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE. This is not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. This is the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
net/: Rename the file d_mtu in the network driver structure to d_pktsize. That value saved there is not the MTU. The packetsize is the memory large enough to hold the maximum packet PLUS the size of the link layer header. The MTU does not include the link layer header.
Fix a few typo/compilation problems.
net/: Remove all CONFIG_NET_xxx_TCP_RECVWNDO configuration variables. They were used only to initialize the d_recwndo of the network device structure which no longer exists.
net/: Remove the device TCP receive window field (d_recvwndo) from the device structure. That value is no longer retained, but is calculated dynamically.
Remove some dangling references to CONFIG_NET_TCP_RWND_CONTROL.
net/tcp: Take read-ahead throttling into account when calculating the TCP receive window size.
net/tcp: tcp_get_recvwindow() now returns the receive window size directly (vs. indirectly via the device structure).
net/tcp: Remove CONFIG_NET_TCP_RWND_CONTROL. TCP window algorithm is now trigged only by CONFIG_NET_TCP_READAHEAD.
