[PATCH bpf-next v3 1/2] bpf: support TCP_RTO_MAX_MS for bpf_setsockopt

Some applications don't want to wait for too long because the
time of retransmission increases exponentially and can reach more
than 10 seconds, for example. Eric implements the core logic
on supporting rto max feature in the stack previously. Based on that,
we can support it for BPF use.

This patch reuses the same logic of TCP_RTO_MAX_MS in do_tcp_setsockopt()
and do_tcp_getsockopt(). BPF program can call bpf_{set/get}sockopt()
to set/get the maximum value of RTO.
