rxrpc: Fix call expiry handling
Fix call expiry handling in the following ways
(1) If all the request data from a client call is acked, don't send a
follow up IDLE ACK with firstPacket == 1 and previousPacket == 0 as
this appears to fool some servers into thinking everything has been
accepted.
(2) Never send an abort back to the server once it has ACK'd all the
request packets; rather just try to reuse the channel for the next
call. The first request DATA packet of the next call on the same
channel will implicitly ACK the entire reply of the dead call - even
if we haven't transmitted it yet.
(3) Don't send RX_CALL_TIMEOUT in an ABORT packet, librx uses abort codes
to pass local errors to the caller in addition to remote errors, and
this is meant to be local only.
The following also need to be addressed in future patches:
(4) Service calls should send PING ACKs as 'keep alives' if the server is
still processing the call.
(5) VERSION REPLY packets should be sent to the peers of service
connections to act as keep-alives. This is used to keep firewall
routes in place. The AFS CM should enable this.
