tcp: resalt the secret every 10 seconds

[ Upstream commit 401961d31fd0b0b858f3d1dbaaa6429f2a94ab18 ]

In order to limit the ability for an observer to recognize the source
ports sequence used to contact a set of destinations, we should
periodically shuffle the secret. 10 seconds looks effective enough
without causing particular issues.
