Amaury Denoyelle f6599cf5a6 MEDIUM: quic: decount out-of-order ACK data range for MUX txbuf window
This commit is the last one of a serie whose objective is to restore
QUIC transfer throughput performance to the state prior to the recent
QUIC MUX buffer allocator rework.

This gain is obtained by reporting received out-of-order ACK data range
to the QUIC MUX which can then decount room in its txbuf window. This is
implemented in QUIC streamdesc layer by adding a new invokation of
notify_room callback. This is done into qc_stream_buf_store_ack() which
handle out-of-order ACK data range.

Previous commit has introduced merging of overlapping ACK data range. As
such, it's easy to only report the newly acknowledged data range.

As with in-order ACKs, this new notification is only performed on
released streambuf. As such, when a streambuf instance is released,
notify_room notification now also reports the total length of
out-of-order ACK data range currently stored. This value is stored in a
new streambuf member <room> to avoid unnecessary tree lookup.

This <room> member also serves on in-order ACK notification to reduce
the notified room. This prevents to report invalid values when overlap
ranges are treated first out-of-order and then in-order, which would
cause an invalid QUIC MUX txbuf window value.

After this change has been implemented, performance has been
significantly improved, both with ngtcp2-client rate usage and on
interop goodput test. These values are now similar to the rate observed
on older haproxy version before QUIC MUX buffer allocator rework.
