dccp ccid-2: Update code for the Ack Vector input/registration routine
This patch updates the code which registers new packets as received, using the new circular buffer interface. It contributes a new algorithm which * supports both tail/head pointers and buffer wrap-around and * deals with overflow (head/tail move in lock-step).
