selftests: net: let big_tcp test cope with slow env

In very slow environments, most big TCP cases including
segmentation and reassembly of big TCP packets have a good
chance to fail: by default the TCP client uses write size
well below 64K. If the host is low enough autocorking is
unable to build real big TCP packets.

Address the issue using much larger write operations.

Note that is hard to observe the issue without an extremely
slow and/or overloaded environment; reduce the TCP transfer
time to allow for much easier/faster reproducibility.
