An unacknowledged packet is marked as lost when an acknowledgment is received
for a packet that was sent kPacketThreshold number of packets or
kTimeThreshold amount of time after the unacknowledged packet.
for a packet sent sufficiently after the unacknowledged packet.
* The largest acknowledged packet is more than kPacketThreshold packets larger
than the unacknowleged packet.
* The unacknowledged packet was sent more than
(1 + kTimeThreshold) * max(SRTT, latest_RTT) ago.
