Fix TCP slow_start_after_idle sysctl

[TCP]: slow_start_after_idle should influence cwnd validation too

For the cases that slow_start_after_idle are meant to deal
with, it is almost a certainty that the congestion window
tests will think the connection is application limited and
we'll thus decrease the cwnd there too.  This defeats the
whole point of setting slow_start_after_idle to zero.

So test it there too.

We do not cancel out the entire tcp_cwnd_validate() function
so that if the sysctl is changed we still have the validation
state maintained.
