7bfbf8dedb Import the ERTT (Enhanced Round Trip Time) Khelp module. ERTT uses the
Khelp/Hhook KPIs to hook into the TCP stack and maintain a per-connection, low
noise estimate of the instantaneous RTT. ERTT's implementation is robust even in
the face of delayed acknowledgements and/or TSO being in use for a connection.

A high quality, low noise RTT estimate is a requirement for applications such as
delay-based congestion control, for which we will be importing some algorithm
implementations shortly.
