ipv4/tcp: Force applications to use `TCP_NODELAY` to improve network latency
`TCP_NODELAY` will disable Nagle's algorithm, which basically collects small outgoing packets to send all at once. Thus `TCP_NODELAY` will send the data whenever it is available without waiting for any period to collect packets. It will basically optimize network video games and applications using chatty protocols (source: ExtraHop[1], RedHat[2]) [1]: https://www.extrahop.com/company/blog/2016/tcp-nodelay-nagle-quickack-best-practices/#:~:text=The%20TCP_NODELAY%20socket%20option%20allows,buffer%2C%20whatever%20the%20packet%20size.
