Subject: [PATCH] [CCID2]: Bug in reading Ack Vectors
In CCID2 the receiver-history is sorted in ascending order of sequence number,
but the processing of received Ack Vectors requires the list traversal in the
opposite direction.
The current code has a bug in this regard: the list traversal is upwards. As a
consequence, only Ack Vectors with a run length of 1 will pass, in all other
Ack Vectors the remaining (acked) sequence numbers are missed, and may later
falsely be identified as lost.
Note: This bug is only visible when Ack Ratio > 1, since otherwise the run
lengths of Ack Vectors are 0.
