ResetInitCwnd.seq - The cwnd of the transport address should be adjusted to max(cwnd/2, 4*MTU) when no transmit data
To verify that when the sender does not transmit DATA on a
given transport address, the cwnd of the transport address
should be adjusted to max(cwnd / 2, 4*MTU) per RTO.

TEST DESCRIPTION:
1. Check A: the initial cwnd before DATA transmission is set to 4380.
2. From endpoint B, send valid DATA message 4 times to endpoint A,
when there is association between them.
3. From endpoint A, send SACK of the first DATA message to
endpoint B.
4. Check B: Congestion control window is increased by DATA size.
5. From endpoint A, receive DATA message 2 times.
6. From endpoint A, send SACK of the 1st, 3rd DATA messages to
endpoint B, report the 2nd message is missing.
7. From endpoint A, send SACK of the 1st, 3rd and 4th DATA messages
to endpoint B, report the 2nd message is missing.
8. From endpoint A, send SACK of the 1st, 3rd to 5th DATA messages
to endpoint B, report the 2nd message is missing.
9. Check C: The 2nd DATA messages is send again immediately.
10.Check D: Congestion control window is 6000 now.
11.Send SACK of all DATA to endpoint B.
12.From endpoint A, Send DATA message to endpoint and receive SACK.
13.From endpoint A, receive DATA message 5 times.
14.Send SACK of first two messages.
15.Check E: Congestion control window is 7500 now.
17.Receive DATA message 2 times and send SACK of above DATA messages.
18.Do not send any message to another endpoint within the current
Heartbeat period. HEARTBEAT message is sent from endpoint B.
19.Check F: Congestion control window is 6000 now.

RFC 4960
7.2.2. Congestion Avoidance
When cwnd is greater than ssthresh, cwnd should be incremented by
1*MTU per RTT if the sender has cwnd or more bytes of data
outstanding for the corresponding transport address.
In practice, an implementation can achieve this goal in the following
way:
o partial_bytes_acked is initialized to 0.
o Whenever cwnd is greater than ssthresh, upon each SACK arrival
that advances the Cumulative TSN Ack Point, increase
partial_bytes_acked by the total number of bytes of all new chunks
acknowledged in that SACK including chunks acknowledged by the new
Cumulative TSN Ack and by Gap Ack Blocks.
o When partial_bytes_acked is equal to or greater than cwnd and
before the arrival of the SACK the sender had cwnd or more bytes
of data outstanding (i.e., before arrival of the SACK, flightsize
was greater than or equal to cwnd), increase cwnd by MTU, and
reset partial_bytes_acked to (partial_bytes_acked - cwnd).
o Same as in the slow start, when the sender does not transmit DATA
on a given transport address, the cwnd of the transport address
should be adjusted to max(cwnd / 2, 4*MTU) per RTO.
o When all of the data transmitted by the sender has been
acknowledged by the receiver, partial_bytes_acked is initialized
to 0.
