This patch series makes the congestion control a bit more responsive and it should be able to make better decisions.

If you use TigerVNC over a high latency connection then please test and report back. Note that these changes are in the server, not the client.

This reduces the data sent, and avoids any problems with the
client corrupting it.
It's a general function and it's better to have that particular
complexity in its own place.
Refine the previous method by interpolating the values we need.
This reduces the effect of the problem that we cannot send enough
ping packets.
Allows us to compare our computed congestion window with the
underlying one used by the TCP layer.

Did a whole bunch of test runs over various network conditions (using simulator):

All cases showed improvement or similar behaviour to the old system (generally latency > 100ms showed improvement).
