networkd: allow to configure default/initial send/recv congestion window and store persistentl (#7750)

Currently we can only change initcwnd/initrwnd in the following way, and it does not store persistently:
sudo ip route change default via 192.168.1.1 dev tun0 initcwnd 20
sudo ip route change default via 192.168.1.1 dev tun0 initrwnd 20

For more details about initcwnd/initrwnd, please look at:

http://www.cdnplanet.com/blog/tune-tcp-initcwnd-for-optimum-performance
or google 'initcwnd initrwnd'

This work allows to configure the initcwnd and initrwnd.

Closes #2118

<listitem>
<para>The TCP initial congestion window or <literal>InitialCongestionWindow</literal> is used during the start
of a TCP connection. During the start of a TCP session, when a client requests for a resource, the server's initial congestion window
determines how many data packets will be sent during the initial burst of data. Takes a number between between 1 and 4294967295 (2^32 - 1).
Defaults to unset.

<para>The TCP receive window size or <literal>InitialAdvertisedReceiveWindow</literal> is the amount of receive data (in bytes)
that can be buffered at one time on a connection. The sending host can send only that amount of data before waiting for
an acknowledgment and window update from the receiving host. Takes a number between 1 and 4294967295 (2^32 - 1). Defaults to unset.
