[DCCP] tfrc: Add protection against invalid parameters to TFRC routines
1) For the forward X_calc lookup, it
* protects effectively against RTT=0 (this case is possible), by
returning the maximal lookup value instead of just setting it to 1
* reformulates the array-bounds exceeded condition: this only happens
if p is greater than 1E6 (due to the scaling)
* the case of negative indices can now with certainty be excluded,
since documentation shows that the formulas are within bounds
* additional protection against p = 0 (would give divide-by-zero)
2) For the reverse lookup, it warns against
* protects against exceeding array bounds
* now returns 0 if f(p) = 0, due to function definition
* warns about minimal resolution error and returns the smallest table
value instead of p=0 [this would mask congestion conditions]
