dccp: Implement both feature-local and feature-remote Sequence Window feature

This adds full support for local/remote Sequence Window feature, from which the
  * sequence-number-validity (W) and
  * acknowledgment-number-validity (W') windows
derive as specified in RFC 4340, 7.5.3.

Specifically, the following is contained in this patch:
  * integrated new socket fields into dccp_sk;
  * updated the update_gsr/gss routines with regard to these fields;
  * updated handler code: the Sequence Window feature is located at the TX side,
    so the local feature is meant if the handler-rx flag is false;
  * the initialisation of `rcv_wnd' in reqsk is removed, since
    - rcv_wnd is not used by the code anywhere;
    - sequence number checks are not done in the LISTEN state (cf. 7.5.3);
    - dccp_check_req checks the Ack number validity more rigorously;
  * the `struct dccp_minisock' became empty and is now removed.
