[PATCH v10 00/13] net: tcp: improve tcp support

[Mikhail Kshevetskiy]

U-Boot support of LWIP is not ready for a moment, but we already have
some kind of tcp support. Unfrotunately this support is really bad.

Some of the known issues:
 * tcp packet from other connection can break a current one
 * tcp send sequence always starts from zero
 * bad tcp options processing
 * strange assumptions on packet size for selectiv acknowledge
 * tcp interface assumes one of the two scenarios:
     - data downloading from remote host to a board
     - request-response exchange with a small packets
   so it's not possible to upload large amount of data from the
   board to remote host.
 * wget test generate bad tcp stream, test should fail but it passes instead

This series of patches fixes all of the above issuess.

The benefits:
 * A lot of bug was fixed
 * Better and more reliable TCP state machine
 * Tcp cliens becomes smaller/simpler
 * Data uploading was fixed (now it's possible to transmit a huge amount of
   data from the board to remote host)
 * Netcat over tcp was implemented. Netcat supports data downloading/uploading
   from/to remote host in client/server mode.
 * An example web-server implementation. This code can be used as a base
   for web-based firmware uploading used by some vendors.

Modification was verified with
 * firmware downloading via u-boot wget command
 * fastboot over tcp
 * netcat linux client
 * Firefox/Chrome/Edge using example web-server implementation

Changes v2:
 * cover letter was added
 * some patches were removed

Changes v3:
 * better cover letter

Changes v4:
 * fix bug in debug output
 * add more comments
 * codestyle fixes

Changes v5:
 * old patches were ocasionally sent with v4
 * add back web-server patches
 * fix bug in debug output
 * add more comments
 * codestyle fixes

Changes v6:
 * fix the wget test
 * improve description of "simplify tcp header filling code" patch

Changes v7:
 * fix include ordering
 * improve option descriptions
 * fix a lot of extra brackets and comparisons against NULL / 0
 * add empty lines before final returns
 * fixed a bug with zero size httpd uploads

Changes v8:
 * [tcp] add function to restart rx inactivity timeout. This may help
        in the cases where remote peer waits for u-boot data, but u-boot
        is busy with long executing action
 * [httpd] add function returning underlying tcp stream from request id.
        This (with the above change) allows avoid connection break
        for the long processing post requests.

Changes v9:
 * rebase all changes on top of origin/next
 * update test/cmd/wget patch description (bad tcp ack/seq issue was already
   fixed in origin/next)
 * tcp: add rx/tx packet counters to a tcp_stream structure
 * wget: use tcp rx packet counter instead of own one
 * netcat: use tcp rx/tx packet counters instead of own one

Changes v10:
 * netcat: fix bug appeared after rx/tx packet counter addition
 * rebased on top of v2024.10
