tcp: Split handling of DUP_ACK from ACK

Browse source 
The DUP_ACK flag to tcp_send_flag() has two effects: first it forces the
setting of the ACK flag in the packet, even if we otherwise wouldn't.
Secondly, it causes a duplicate of the flags packet to be sent immediately
after the first.

Setting the ACK flag to tcp_send_flag() also has the first effect, so
instead of having DUP_ACK also do that, pass both flags when we need both
operations.  This slightly simplifies the logic of tcp_send_flag() in a way
that makes some future changes easier.
