tcp: don't clear lost_skb_hint when not necessary
Most importantly avoid doing it with cumulative ACK. However, since we have lost_cnt_hint in the picture as well needing adjustments, it's not as trivial as dealing with retransmit_skb_hint (and cannot be done in the all place we could trivially leave retransmit_skb_hint untouched). With the previous patch, this should mostly remove O(n^2) behavior while cumulative ACKs start flowing once rexmit after a lossy round-trip made it through.
