dccp: fix warning in net/dccp/options.c
this warning:

  net/dccp/options.c: In function ‘dccp_parse_options’:
  net/dccp/options.c:67: warning: ‘value’ may be used uninitialized in this function

is a bogus GCC warning. The compiler does not recognize the relation
between "value" and "mandatory" variables: the code flow can ever reach
the "out_invalid_option:" label if 'mandatory' is set to 1, and when
'mandatory' is non-zero, we'll always have 'value' initialized.

Help out the compiler by annotating the variable.
