dccp: Initialisation and type-checking of feature sysctls

This patch takes care of initialising and type-checking sysctls
related to feature negotiation. Type checking is important since some
of the sysctls now directly impact the feature-negotiation process.

The sysctls are initialised with the known default values for each
feature.  For the type-checking the value constraints from RFC 4340
are used:

 * Sequence Window uses the specified Wmin=32, the maximum is ulong (4 bytes),
   tested and confirmed that it works up to 4294967295 - for Gbps speed;
 * Ack Ratio is between 0 .. 0xffff (2-byte unsigned integer);
 * CCIDs are between 0 .. 255;
 * request_retries, retries1, retries2 also between 0..255 for good measure;
 * tx_qlen is checked to be non-negative;
 * sync_ratelimit remains as before.

Notes:
------
 1. Die s@sysctl_dccp_feat@sysctl_dccp@g since the sysctls are now in feat.c.
 2. As pointed out by Arnaldo, the pattern of type-checking repeats itself in
    other places, sometimes with exactly the same kind of definitions (e.g.
    "static int zero;"). It may be a good idea (kernel janitors?) to consolidate
    type checking. For the sake of keeping the changeset small and in order not
    to affect other subsystems, I have not strived to generalise here.
