[PATCH] RPC: add API to set transport-specific timeouts

Prepare the way to remove the "xprt->nocong" variable by adding a callout
 to the RPC client transport switch API to handle setting RPC retransmit
 timeouts.

 Add a pair of generic helper functions that provide the ability to set a
 simple fixed timeout, or to set a timeout based on the state of a round-
 trip estimator.

 Test-plan:
 Use WAN simulation to cause sporadic bursty packet loss.  Look for significant
 regression in performance or client stability.
