sctp: add weighted fair queueing stream scheduler
As it says in rfc8260#section-3.6 about the weighted fair queueing scheduler: A Weighted Fair Queueing scheduler between the streams is used. The weight is configurable per outgoing SCTP stream. This scheduler considers the lengths of the messages of each stream and schedules them in a specific way to use the capacity according to the given weights. If the weight of stream S1 is n times the weight of stream S2, the scheduler should assign to stream S1 n times the capacity it assigns to stream S2. The details are implementation dependent. Interleaving user messages allows for a better realization of the capacity usage according to the given weights. This patch adds Weighted Fair Queueing Scheduler actually based on the code of Fair Capacity Scheduler by adding fc_weight into struct sctp_stream_out_ext and taking it into account when sorting stream-> fc_list in sctp_sched_fc_sched() and sctp_sched_fc_dequeue_done().
