[Codel] [PATCH net-next] fq_codel: report congestion notification at enqueue time

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet at google.com>

At enqueue time, check sojourn time of packet at head of the queue,
and return NET_XMIT_CN instead of NET_XMIT_SUCCESS if this sejourn
time is above codel @target.

This permits local TCP stack to call tcp_enter_cwr() and reduce its cwnd
without drops (for example if ECN is not enabled for the flow)
