mptcp: pm: fix ADD_ADDR timer infinite retry on option space insufficient
When TCP option space is insufficient (e.g., when sending ADD_ADDR with an
IPv6 address and port while tcp_timestamps is enabled), the original code
jumped to out_unlock without clearing the addr_signal flag. This caused
mptcp_pm_add_timer to keep rescheduling indefinitely, not sending ADD_ADDR,
preventing subsequent addresses in the endpoint list from being announced.
Handle this case by clearing the ADD_ADDR signal and skipping the matching
ADD_ADDR retransmission entry. The skip path cancels the matching timer
(with id check) and advances PM state progression, preserving forward
progress to subsequent PM work.
This cancellation is inherently best-effort. A concurrent add_timer
callback may already be running and may acquire pm.lock before the
cancel path updates entry state. In that case, one final ADD_ADDR
transmit attempt can still be executed.
Once the cancel path sets entry->retrans_times to ADD_ADDR_RETRANS_MAX,
the callback-side retrans_times check suppresses further ADD_ADDR
retransmissions.
Note that when an ADD_ADDR is being prepared, a pure-ACK is queued. On
the output side, it means that it is fine to skip non-pure-ACK packets,
when drop_other_suboptions is set: a pure-ACK will be processed soon
after.
