[DCCP]: Use `unsigned' for packet lengths
This patch implements a suggestion by Ian McDonald and
1) Avoids tests against negative packet lengths by using unsigned int
for packet payload lengths in the CCID send_packet()/packet_sent() routines
2) As a consequence, it removes an now unnecessary test with regard to `len > 0'
in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent: that condition is always true, since
* negative packet lengths are avoided
* ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet flags an error whenever the payload length is 0.
As a consequence, ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent is never called as all errors
returned by ccid_hc_tx_send_packet are caught in dccp_write_xmit
3) Removes the third argument of ccid_hc_tx_send_packet (the `len' parameter),
since it is currently always set to skb->len. The code is updated with regard
to this parameter change.
