[DCCP]: Dedicated auxiliary states to support passive-close

This adds two auxiliary states to deal with passive closes:
  * PASSIVE_CLOSE    (reached from OPEN via reception of Close)    and
  * PASSIVE_CLOSEREQ (reached from OPEN via reception of CloseReq)
as internal intermediate states.

These states are used to allow a receiver to process unread data before
acknowledging the received connection-termination-request (the Close/CloseReq).

Without such support, it will happen that passively-closed sockets enter CLOSED
state while there is still unprocessed data in the queue; leading to unexpected
and erratic API behaviour.

PASSIVE_CLOSE has been mapped into TCPF_CLOSE_WAIT, so that the code will
seamlessly work with inet_accept() (which tests for this state).

The state names are thanks to Arnaldo, who suggested this naming scheme
following an earlier revision of this patch.
