This removes the use of the sysctl and the minisock variable for the Send Ack
Vector feature, as it now is handled fully dynamically via feature negotiation
(i.e. when CCID-2 is enabled, Ack Vectors are automatically enabled as per
 RFC 4341, 4.).

Using a sysctl in parallel to this implementation would open the door to
crashes, since much of the code relies on tests of the boolean minisock /
sysctl variable. Thus, this patch replaces all tests of type

	if (dccp_msk(sk)->dccpms_send_ack_vector)
		/* ... */
with
	if (dp->dccps_hc_rx_ackvec != NULL)
		/* ... */

The dccps_hc_rx_ackvec is allocated by the dccp_hdlr_ackvec() when feature
negotiation concluded that Ack Vectors are to be used on the half-connection.
Otherwise, it is NULL (due to dccp_init_sock/dccp_create_openreq_child),
so that the test is a valid one.

The activation handler for Ack Vectors is called as soon as the feature
negotiation has concluded at the
 * server when the Ack marking the transition RESPOND => OPEN arrives;
 * client after it has sent its ACK, marking the transition REQUEST => PARTOPEN.

Adding the sequence number of the Response packet to the Ack Vector has been
removed, since
 (a) connection establishment implies that the Response has been received;
 (b) the CCIDs only look at packets received in the (PART)OPEN state, i.e.
     this entry will always be ignored;
 (c) it can not be used for anything useful - to detect loss for instance, only
     packets received after the loss can serve as pseudo-dupacks.

There was a FIXME to change the error code when dccp_ackvec_add() fails.
I removed this after finding out that:
 * the check whether ackno < ISN is already made earlier,
 * this Response is likely the 1st packet with an Ackno that the client gets,
 * so when dccp_ackvec_add() fails, the reason is likely not a packet error.
