tcp: Add TCP_INFO counter for packets received out-of-order
For receive-heavy cases on the server-side, we want to track the connection quality for individual client IPs. This counter, similar to the existing system-wide TCPOFOQueue counter in /proc/net/netstat, tracks out-of-order packet reception. By providing this counter in TCP_INFO, it will allow understanding to what degree receive-heavy sockets are experiencing out-of-order delivery and packet drops indicating congestion. Please note that this is similar to the counter in NetBSD TCP_INFO, and has the same name. Also note that we avoid increasing the size of the tcp_sock struct by taking advantage of a hole.
