[TCP]: H-TCP maxRTT estimation at startup



Small patch to H-TCP from Douglas Leith. 

Fix estimation of maxRTT.  The original code ignores rtt measurements
during slow start (via the check tp->snd_ssthresh < 0xFFFF) yet this
is probably a good time to try to estimate max rtt as delayed acking
is disabled and slow start will only exit on a loss which presumably
corresponds to a maxrtt measurement.  Second, the original code (via
the check htcp_ccount(ca) > 3) ignores rtt data during what it
estimates to be the first 3 round-trip times.  This seems like an
unnecessary check now that the RCV timestamp are no longer used
for rtt estimation.
