tcp: accecn: handle unexpected AccECN negotiation feedback
According to Sections 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 of AccECN spec (RFC9768).
In Section 3.1.2, it says an AccECN implementation has no need to
recognize or support the Server response labelled 'Nonce' or ECN-nonce
feedback more generally, as RFC 3540 has been reclassified as Historic.
AccECN is compatible with alternative ECN feedback integrity approaches
to the nonce. The SYN/ACK labelled 'Nonce' with (AE,CWR,ECE) = (1,0,1)
is reserved for future use. A TCP Client (A) that receives such a SYN/ACK
follows the procedure for forward compatibility given in Section 3.1.3.
Then in Section 3.1.3, it says if a TCP Client has sent a SYN requesting
AccECN feedback with (AE,CWR,ECE) = (1,1,1) then receives a SYN/ACK with
the currently reserved combination (AE,CWR,ECE) = (1,0,1) but it does not
have logic specific to such a combination, the Client MUST enable AccECN
mode as if the SYN/ACK onfirmed that the Server supported AccECN and as
if it fed back that the IP-ECN field on the SYN had arrived unchanged.
