tcp: separate timeout marking loop to it's own function

Some comment about its current state added. So far I have
seen very few cases where the thing is actually useful,
usually just marginally (though admittedly I don't usually
see top of window losses where it seems possible that there
could be some gain), instead, more often the cases suffer
from L-marking spike which is certainly not desirable
(I'll bury improving it to my todo list, but on a low
prio position).
