This commit returns LwIP to previous behavior where if the next unsent
segment can't be sent due to the current send window, we start the
persist timer. This is done to engage window probing in the case that
the subsequent window update from the receiver is dropped, thus
preventing connection deadlock
This commit refines the previous logic to only target the following case:
1) Next unsent segment doesn't fit within the send window (not
congestion) and there is some room in the window
2) Unacked queue is empty (otherwise data is inflight and the RTO timer
will take care of any dropped window updates)
See commit d8f090a7595a79050c435545d00efc1261b9691c (which removed this
behavior) to reference the old logic. The old logic falsely started the
persit timer when the RTO timer was already running.
This commit cleans up a duplicate #if check for LWIP_WND_SCALE in init.c
which was already under #if LWIP_WND_SCALE
This commit also improves documentation for TCP_WND in the window scaling
case to communicate TCP_WND is always the calculated (scaled) window value,
not the value reported in the TCP header
Our developers were confused by having to set both the window and scaling
factor and only after studying the usage of TCP_WND throughout the code, was
it determined to be the calculated (scaled) window
p needs to point to LWIP_MEM_ALIGN(memp_pools[i]->base) otherwise it will cause
assertion in overflow checking.

When memp_free_pool was split out from memp_free (c838e1ed5b8c42648de2),
the check for freeing the null pointer was lost.
This resulted in the null value being put back in the list of free
objects, causing all subsequent allocations of that type to fail.
The mld_group structure no longer has a 'netif' field, as such
structures are now linked from the corresponding netif structure.
For conditional checksumming, use the calling function's netif
reference instead.
This comment is incorrect since commit 7d0dab9d7d0c
"partly fixed bug #25882: TCP hangs on MSS > pcb->snd_wnd
(by not creating segments bigger than half the window)".

Let lwip use functions/macros prefixed by lwip_ internally to avoid naming clashes with external #includes.
Remove over-complicated #define handling in def.h
Make functions easier to override in cc.h. The following is sufficient now (no more LWIP_PLATFORM_BYTESWAP):
#define lwip_htons(x) <your_htons>
#define lwip_htonl(x) <your_htonl>
TCP's snd_nxt represents the next sequence number after sent data, and
as such does not cover any unsent data queued on the connection. The
current implementation does not take the latter point into account
when processing FIN acknowledgments, mistakenly assuming that an
outgoing FIN is ACK'ed when the acknowledgment covers up to snd_nxt
while there is still unsent data. This patch adds a check for unsent
data to correct this, effectively preventing that TCP connections are
closed prematurely.
It is possible that the byte sent as a zero window probe is accepted
and acknowledged by the receiver side without the window being opened.
In that case, the stream has effectively advanced by one byte, and
since lwIP did not take this into account on the sender side, the
result was a desynchronization between the sender and the receiver.
That situation could occur even on a lwIP loopback device, after
filling up the receiver side's receive buffer, and resulted in an ACK
storm. This patch corrects the problem by advancing the sender's next
sequence number by one as needed when sending a zero window probe.
delay_time and stale_time are ticks now.
reachable_time and invalidation_timer are untouched since they may originate from telegram values -> not converting them to ticks avoids an integer division
commit 8c52afb6ca21 ("igmp: Optimize code by always skipping the first entry in the linked groups list - it is always the "allsystems" entry")
accidently changes the code logic. it should check groupref rather than group.
