Subject: [PATCH] mptcp: don't account accept() of non-MPC client as fallback
 to TCP

Current MPTCP servers increment MPTcpExtMPCapableFallbackACK when they
accept non-MPC connections. As reported by Christoph, this is "surprising"
because the counter might become greater than MPTcpExtMPCapableSYNRX.

MPTcpExtMPCapableFallbackACK counter's name suggests it should only be
incremented when a connection was seen using MPTCP options, then a
fallback to TCP has been done. Let's do that by incrementing it when
the subflow context of an inbound MPC connection attempt is dropped.
Also, update mptcp_connect.sh kselftest, to ensure that the
above MIB does not increment in case a pure TCP client connects to a
MPTCP server.

[PATCH 6.1.y] mptcp: don't account accept() of non-MPC client as fallback to TCP

Notes:
  - Conflicts in protocol.c: because commit 8e2b8a9fa512 ("mptcp: don't
    overwrite sock_ops in mptcp_is_tcpsk()") is not in this version, but
    it depends on new features, making it hard to be backported, while
    the conflict resolution is easy: just remove the MIB incrementation
    from the previous location.
  - Conflicts in mptcp_connect.sh: because commit e3aae1098f10
    ("selftests: mptcp: connect: fix shellcheck warnings") and commit
    e7c42bf4d320 ("selftests: mptcp: use += operator to append strings")
    are not in this version. The dependency chain looks too long, while
    resolving the conflicts was not difficult:
      - using get_mib_counter() instead of the new
        mptcp_lib_get_counter()
      - writing the error message with 'printf' instead of the new
        mptcp_lib_pr_fail().
