net: tcp2: Implement the retransmission for the outgoing data
In order to support the retransmission for the outgoing data:
1. The outgoing data packet is appended to the send_data queue
in net_tcp_queue_data().
2. tcp_send_queued_data() is called and will use tcp_send_data()
to sends queued but unsent data packet by packet
until there's an unsent data and the receiver's window isn't full.
tcp_send_queued_data() subscribes send_data_timer
that will handle retrasmissions with tcp_resend_data().
3. tcp_send_data() peeks a single chunk of data from the send_data
queue that will not exceed the maximum segment size
until the the receiver's window is full.
tcp_send_data() uses conn->seq and conn->unack_len as the sequence
number for the TCP packet.
conn->unacked_len is advanced on each send.
4. On data acknowledgment:
- acknowledged amount of data is removed from the beginning
of the send_data queue
- conn->seq is advanced by the acknowledged amount
- conn->unacked_len is decremented by the acknowledged amount
- send_data_timer is cancelled
- tcp_send_queued_data() is called to send queued but
prevoiusly unsent data
5. On timeout, tcp_resend_data() will reset conn->unack_len,
peek one packet from the beginning of the send_queue and resend,
terminating the connection on retries exceeded.
Meanwhile the outgoing data tcp_send_queued_data() is just
appended to the send_data but not sent.
In case of the acknowledgement, tcp_send_queued_data() will
start sending multiple packets until the receiver's window
is full.
