Subject: [PATCH net 2/3] netfilter: nf_conntrack_tcp: preserve liberal flag in tcp options

Do not reset IP_CT_TCP_FLAG_BE_LIBERAL flag in out-of-sync scenarios
coming before the TCP window tracking, otherwise such connections will
fail in the window check.

Update tcp_options() to leave this flag in place and add a new helper
function to reset the tcp window state.

Based on patch from Sven Auhagen.

Fixes: c4832c7bbc3f ("netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: improve out-of-sync situation in TCP tracking")
