tcp: Rework timers to use timerfd instead of periodic bitmap scan

With a lot of concurrent connections, the bitmap scan approach is
not really sustainable.

Switch to per-connection timerfd timers, set based on events and on
two new flags, ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE and ACK_TO_TAP_DUE. Timers are added
to the common epoll list, and implement the existing timeouts.

While at it, drop the CONN_ prefix from flag names, otherwise they
get quite long, and fix the logic to decide if a connection has a
local, possibly unreachable endpoint: we shouldn't go through the
rest of tcp_conn_from_tap() if we reset the connection due to a
successful bind(2), and we'll get EACCES if the port number is low.
