This assumes that cwnd does not increase in the CA_Recovery. For some congestion control algorithms, like the upcoming BBR module, if the losses in recovery do not indicate congestion then we may continue to raise cwnd multiplicatively in recovery. In such cases the current multiplier will falsely limit the sending rate, much as if it were limited by the application. This commit adds an optional congestion control callback to use a different multiplier to expand the TCP send buffer. For congestion control modules that do not specificy this callback, TCP continues to use the previous default of 2.
