Add sysctl tunable net.inet.tcp.initcwnd_segments to specify initial congestion

Description

Add sysctl tunable net.inet.tcp.initcwnd_segments to specify initial congestion
window in number of segments on fly. It is set to 10 segments by default.

Remove net.inet.tcp.experimental.initcwnd10 which is now redundant. Also remove
the parent node net.inet.tcp.experimental as it's not needed anymore and also
because it was not well thought out.
