====================
tcp: update TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS after trace_tcp_retransmit_skb()

Move TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS updating after the trace_tcp_retransmit_skb()
in __tcp_retransmit_skb(), and then we are aware of whether the skb has
ever been retransmitted in this tracepoint. This can be used, e.g., to get
retransmission efficiency by counting skbs w/ and w/o TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS
(through bpf tracing programs).

For this purpose, TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS is also needed to be exposed to bpf.
Previously, the flags are defined as macros in struct tcp_skb_cb. I moved them
out into a new enum, and then they can be accessed with vmlinux.h.

We have discussed to achieve this with BPF_SOCK_OPS in [0], and using
tracepoint is thought to be a better solution.
