tcp: "TCP" hash secret doesn't need to be TCP specific

Browse source 
The TCP state structure includes a 128-bit hash_secret which we use for
SipHash calculations to mitigate attacks on the TCP hash table and initial
sequence number.

We have plans to use SipHash in places that aren't TCP related, and there's
no particular reason they'd need their own secret.  So move the hash_secret
to the general context structure.
