nat: tweak rfc7857 tcp connection tracking
The RFC7857 state machine introduced in
56c492a is a trade-off.
It tries to retain sessions as much as possible and also offers
some protection against spurious RST by re-establishing sessions if data
is received after the RST. From experience in the wild, this algorithm is
a little too liberal, as it leaves too many spurious established sessions
in the session table.
E.g. a oberserved pattern is:
client server
<- FIN, ACK
ACK ->
ACK ->
RST, ACK ->
With the current state machine this would leave the session in established state.
These proposed changes do:
- require 3-way handshake to establish session.
(current requires only to see SYNs from both sides)
- RST will move session to transitory without recovery if data is sent after
- Only a single FIN is needed to move to transitory
