Lawrence Stewart 0927e1a18b Import an implementation of the CAIA-Hamilton-Delay (CHD) congestion control
algorithm described in the paper "Improved coexistence and loss tolerance for
delay based TCP congestion control" by Hayes and Armitage. It is implemented as
a kernel module compatible with the recently committed modular congestion
control framework.

CHD enhances the approach taken by the Hamilton-Delay (HD) algorithm to provide
tolerance to non-congestion related packet loss and improvements to coexistence
with loss-based congestion control algorithms. A key idea in improving
coexistence with loss-based congestion control algorithms is the use of a shadow
window, which attempts to track how NewReno's congestion window (cwnd) would
evolve. At the next packet loss congestion event, CHD uses the shadow window to
correct cwnd in a way that reduces the amount of unfairness CHD experiences when
competing with loss-based algorithms.
