lib/win_minmax: windowed min or max estimator
This commit introduces a generic library to estimate either the min or max value of a time-varying variable over a recent time window. This is code originally from Kathleen Nichols. The current form of the code is from Van Jacobson. A single struct minmax_sample will track the estimated windowed-max value of the series if you call minmax_running_max() or the estimated windowed-min value of the series if you call minmax_running_min(). Nearly equivalent code is already in place for minimum RTT estimation in the TCP stack. This commit extracts that code and generalizes it to handle both min and max. Moving the code here reduces the footprint and complexity of the TCP code base and makes the filter generally available for other parts of the codebase, including an upcoming TCP congestion control module. This library works well for time series where the measurements are smoothly increasing or decreasing.
