tcp: add new TCP_TW_ACK_OOW state and allow ECN bits in TOS

ECN bits in TOS are always cleared when sending in ACKs in TW. Clearing
them is problematic for TCP flows that used Accurate ECN because ECN bits
decide which service queue the packet is placed into (L4S vs Classic).
Effectively, TW ACKs are always downgraded from L4S to Classic queue
which might impact, e.g., delay the ACK will experience on the path
compared with the other packets of the flow.

Change the TW ACK sending code to differentiate:
- In tcp_v4_send_reset(), commit ba9e04a7ddf4f ("ip: fix tos reflection
  in ack and reset packets") cleans ECN bits for TW reset and this is
  not affected.
- In tcp_v4_timewait_ack(), ECN bits for all TW ACKs are cleaned. But now
  only ECN bits of ACKs for oow data or paws_reject are cleaned, and ECN
  bits of other ACKs will not be cleaned.
- In tcp_v4_reqsk_send_ack(), commit 66b13d99d96a1 ("ipv4: tcp: fix TOS
  value in ACK messages sent from TIME_WAIT") did not clean ECN bits of
  ACKs for oow data or paws_reject. But now the ECN bits rae cleaned for
  these ACKs.
