sctp: Update max.burst implementation

Current implementation of max.burst ends up limiting new
data during cwnd decay period.  The decay is happening becuase
the connection is idle and we are allowed to fill the congestion
window.  The point of max.burst is to limit micro-bursts in response
to large acks.  This still happens, as max.burst is still applied
to each transmit opportunity.  It will also apply if a very large
send is made (greater then allowed by burst).
