tcp: switch tcp and sch_fq to new earliest departure time model
TCP keeps track of tcp_wstamp_ns by itself, meaning sch_fq
no longer has to do it.
Thanks to this model, TCP can get more accurate RTT samples,
since pacing no longer inflates them.
This has the nice effect of removing some delays caused by FQ
quantum mechanism, causing inflated max/P99 latencies.
Also we might relax TCP Small Queue tight limits in the future,
since this new model allow TCP to build bigger batches, since
sch_fq (or a device with earliest departure time offload) ensure
these packets will be delivered on time.
Note that other protocols are not converted (they will probably
never be) so sch_fq has still support for SO_MAX_PACING_RATE
Tested:
Test showing FQ pacing quantum artifact for low-rate flows,
adding unexpected throttles for RPC flows, inflating max and P99 latencies.
The parameters chosen here are to show what happens typically when
a TCP flow has a reduced pacing rate (this can be caused by a reduced
cwin after few losses, or/and rtt above few ms)
