tcp: relax tcp_paws_check()

Some windows versions have wrong RFC1323 implementations, with SYN and
SYNACKS messages containing zero tcp timestamps.

We relaxed in commit fc1ad92d the passive connection case
(Windows connects to a linux machine), but the reverse case (linux
connects to a Windows machine) has an analogue problem when tsvals from
windows machine are 'negative' (high order bit set) : PAWS triggers and
we drops incoming messages.

Fix this by making zero ts_recent value special, allowing frame to be
processed.

Based on a report and initial patch from Dmitiy Balakin
