tcp: accecn: detect loss ACK w/ AccECN option and add TCP_ACCECN_OPTION_PERSIST 

Detect spurious retransmission of a previously sent ACK carrying the
AccECN option after the second retransmission. Since this might be caused
by the middlebox dropping ACK with options it does not recognize, disable
the sending of the AccECN option in all subsequent ACKs. This patch
follows Section 3.2.3.2.2 of AccECN spec (RFC9768), and a new field
(accecn_opt_sent_w_dsack) is added to indicate that an AccECN option was
sent with duplicate SACK info.

Also, a new AccECN option sending mode is added to tcp_ecn_option sysctl:
(TCP_ECN_OPTION_PERSIST), which ignores the AccECN fallback policy and
persistently sends AccECN option once it fits into TCP option space.
