Summary

In current code we drop out-of-order packets; however, we should play nice and re-send ACK for older data packets we are receiving. This will hopefully stop server repeating those packets we already have received. Note we do not answer duplicates from "previous" session (that is, session with different port number), those will eventually time out.

Porting: https://www.illumos.org/rb/r/1198/

Test Plan

Tested with physical systems where the issue was initially found and also I did manage to get duplicates using VPN link over slow wifi.
