[CCID3]: Fix a bug in the send time processing

ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet currently returns 0 when the time difference between
current time and t_nom is less than 1000 microseconds.

In this case the packet is sent immediately; but, unlike other packets that can
be emitted on first attempt, it will not have its window counter updated and
its options set as required. This is a bug.

Fix: Require the time difference to be at least 1000 microseconds. The
algorithm then converges: time differences > 1000 microseconds trigger the
timer in dccp_write_xmit; after timer expiry this function is tried again; when
the time difference is less than 1000, the packet will have its options added
and window counter updated as required.
