Gerrit Renker 3d5b99ae82 TCP: update initial windows according to RFC 5681
This updates the use of larger initial windows, as originally specified in
RFC 3390, to use the newer IW values specified in RFC 5681, section 3.1.

The changes made in RFC 5681 are:
 a) the setting now is more clearly specified in units of segments (as the
    comments  by John Heffner emphasized, this was not very clear in RFC 3390);
 b) for connections with 1095 < SMSS <= 2190 there is now a change:
    - RFC 3390 says that IW <= 4380,
    - RFC 5681 says that IW = 3 * SMSS <= 6570.

Since RFC 3390 is older and "only" proposed standard, whereas the newer RFC 5681
is already draft standard, it seems preferable to use the newer IW variant.
