tcp_cubic: tweak Hystart detection for short RTT flows

After switching ca->delay_min to usec resolution, we exit
slow start prematurely for very low RTT flows, setting
snd_ssthresh to 20.

The reason is that delay_min is fed with RTT of small packet
trains. Then as cwnd is increased, TCP sends bigger TSO packets.

LRO/GRO aggregation and/or interrupt mitigation strategies
on receiver tend to inflate RTT samples.

Fix this by adding to delay_min the expected delay of
two TSO packets, given current pacing rate.

Tested:

Sender uses pfifo_fast qdisc
