Subject: [PATCH 3/7] dccp: send Confirm options only once

From: Samuel Jero <sj323707@...o.edu>

If a connection is in the OPEN state, remove feature negotiation Confirm
options from the list of options after sending them once; as such options
are NOT supposed to be retransmitted and are ONLY supposed to be sent in
response to a Change option (RFC 4340 6.2).
