Gerrit Renker d0c05fe444 dccp ccid-3: Simplified handling of TX states
Since CCIDs are only used during the established phase of a connection,
they have very little internal state; this specifically reduces to:

 * "no packet sent" if and only if s == 0, for the TX packet size s;

 * when the first packet has been sent (i.e. `s' > 0), the question is whether
   or not feedback has been received:
   - if a feedback packet is received, "feedback = yes" is set,
   - if the nofeedback timer expires,  "feedback = no"  is set.

Thus the CCID only needs to remember state about whether or not feedback
has been received. This is now implemented using a boolean flag, which is
toggled when a feedback packet arrives or the nofeedback timer expires.
