dccp ccid-2: Separate option parsing from CCID processing

This patch replaces an almost identical replication of code: large parts
of dccp_parse_options() re-appeared as ccid2_ackvector() in ccid2.c.

Apart from the duplication, this caused two more problems:
 1. CCIDs should not need to be concerned with parsing header options;
 2. one can not assume that Ack Vectors appear as a contiguous area within an
    skb, it is legal to insert other options and/or padding in between. The
    current code would throw an error and stop reading in such a case.

Since Ack Vectors provide CCID-specific information, they are now processed
by the CCID directly, separating this functionality from the main DCCP code.
