tcp: instrument how long TCP is limited by insufficient send buffer
This patch measures the amount of time when TCP runs out of new data to send to the network due to insufficient send buffer, while TCP is still busy delivering (i.e. write queue is not empty). The goal is to indicate either the send buffer autotuning or user SO_SNDBUF setting has resulted network under-utilization. The measurement starts conservatively by checking various conditions to minimize false claims (i.e. under-estimation is more likely). The measurement stops when the SOCK_NOSPACE flag is cleared. But it does not account the time elapsed till the next application write. Also the measurement only starts if the sender is still busy sending data, s.t. the limit accounted is part of the total busy time.
