Add sysctl tunable net.inet.tcp.initcwnd_segments to specify initial congestion
window in number of segments on fly. It is set to 10 segments by default. Remove net.inet.tcp.experimental.initcwnd10 which is now redundant. Also remove the parent node net.inet.tcp.experimental as it's not needed anymore and also because it was not well thought out.

For this reason, we use 200ms of slop and a near-0

.It Va initcwnd_segments
|

Enable the ability to specify initial congestion window in number of segments.
|

The default value is 10 as suggested by RFC 6928.
|

Changing the value on fly would not affect connections using congestion window
|

from the hostcache.
|

Caution:
|
||||
This regulates the burst of packets allowed to be sent in the first RTT.
|
||||
The value should be relative to the link capacity.
|
||||
Start with small values for lower-capacity links.
|

Large bursts can cause buffer overruns and packet drops if routers have small

buffers or the link is experiencing congestion.

Enable the Limited Transmit algorithm as described in RFC 3042.
