The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.
I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.
So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

This is in response to a request sent earlier by Eric W. Biederman
and replaces all sysctl numbers for net.dccp.default with CTL_UNNUMBERED.
It has been tested to compile and to work.
Commiter note: I've removed the use of CTL_UNNUMBERED, not setting .ctl_name
sets it to 0, that is the what CTL_UNNUMBERED is, reason is
to avoid unneeded source code cluttering.

In order to make their function clearer and obtain a consistent naming
scheme to identify sysctls, all existing DCCP sysctls have been prefixed
with `sysctl_dccp', following the same convention as used by TCP.
Feature-specific sysctls retain the `feat' in the middle, although the
`default' has been dropped, since it is obvious from use.
Also removed a duplicate `dccp_feat_default_sequence_window' in ipv4.c.

This adds 3 sysctls which govern the retransmission behaviour of DCCP control
packets (3way handshake, feature negotiation).
It removes 4 FIXMEs from the code.
The close resemblance of sysctl variables to their TCP analogues is emphasised
not only by their name, but also by giving them the same initial values.
This is useful since there is not much practical experience with DCCP yet.
Furthermore, with regard to the previous patch, it is now possible to limit
the number of keepalive-Responses by setting net.dccp.default.request_retries
(also a bit like in TCP).
Lastly, added documentation of all existing DCCP sysctls.

This shifts further sysctls into feat.h. No change in
functionality - shifting code only.

[root@qemu ~]# for a in /proc/sys/net/dccp/default/* ; do echo $a ; cat $a ; done
/proc/sys/net/dccp/default/ack_ratio
2
/proc/sys/net/dccp/default/rx_ccid
3
/proc/sys/net/dccp/default/send_ackvec
1
/proc/sys/net/dccp/default/send_ndp
1
/proc/sys/net/dccp/default/seq_window
100
/proc/sys/net/dccp/default/tx_ccid
3
[root@qemu ~]#
So if wanting to test ccid3 as the tx CCID one can just do:
[root@qemu ~]# echo 3 > /proc/sys/net/dccp/default/tx_ccid
[root@qemu ~]# echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/dccp/default/rx_ccid
[root@qemu ~]# cat /proc/sys/net/dccp/default/[tr]x_ccid
2
3
[root@qemu ~]#
Of course we also need the setsockopt for each app to tell its preferences, but
for testing or defining something other than CCID2 as the default for apps that
don't explicitely set their preference the sysctl interface is handy.
