tcp: Fix recvmsg MSG_PEEK influence of blocking behavior.



Vito Caputo noticed that tcp_recvmsg() returns immediately from
partial reads when MSG_PEEK is used.  In particular, this means that
SO_RCVLOWAT is not respected.

Simply remove the test.  And this matches the behavior of several
other systems, including BSD.
