[DCCP] ccid3: Check against too large p
This patch follows a suggestion by Ian McDonald and ensures that in
the current code the value of p can not exceed 100%.  Such a value is
illegal and would consequently cause a bug condition in tfrc_calc_x().

The receiver case is also tested, and a warning message is added.
