In the situation above we will continue to send ECN ECHO packets
and trigger the peer to reduce the congestion window. To avoid that
we can check CWR on pure ACKs received.
v3:
- Add a sequence check to avoid sending an ACK to an ACK
v2:
- Adjusted the comment
- move CWR check before checking for unacknowledged packets
