tcp: Remove TCPCT

TCPCT uses option-number 253, reserved for experimental use and should
not be used in production environments.
Further, TCPCT does not fully implement RFC 6013.

As a nice side-effect, removing TCPCT increases TCP's performance for
very short flows:

Doing an apache-benchmark with -c 100 -n 100000, sending HTTP-requests
for files of 1KB size.

before this patch:
	average (among 7 runs) of 20845.5 Requests/Second
after:
	average (among 7 runs) of 21403.6 Requests/Second
