Subject: [PATCH 12/19] net-tcp_bbr: v2: record app-limited status of
 TLP-repaired flight

When sending a TLP retransmit, record whether the outstanding flight
of data is application limited. This is important for congestion
control modules that want to respond to losses repaired by TLP
retransmits. This is important because the following scenarios convey
very different information:
 (1) a packet loss with a small number of packets in flight;
 (2) a packet loss with the maximum amount of data in flight allowed
     by the CC module;

Effort: net-tcp_bbr
