xen-netback: don't use last request to determine minimum Tx credit

commit 0f589967 upstream.

The last from guest transmitted request gives no indication about the
minimum amount of credit that the guest might need to send a packet
since the last packet might have been a small one.

Instead allow for the worst case 128 KiB packet.

This is part of XSA155.
