[TCP] FRTO: Consecutive RTOs keep prior_ssthresh and ssthresh
In case a latency spike causes more than one RTO, the later should not
cause the already reduced ssthresh to propagate into the prior_ssthresh
since FRTO declares all such RTOs spurious at once or none of them. In
treating of ssthresh, we mimic what tcp_enter_loss() does.

The previous state (in frto_counter) must be available until we have
checked it in tcp_enter_frto(), and also ACK information flag in
process_frto().
