[TFRC]: Let calling module compute First Loss Interval; convert to ktime_t

TFRC [RFC 3448] requires a synthetic value of the first loss interval length.
Since computing this value requires access to the internals of the calling 
module (parameters s, RTT, and X_recv), it is better to let the calling module
compute the First Loss Interval length.

Therefore, to highlight this, the function has been renamed into
`ccid3_first_li' (due to a max line length of 80 characters); the code has
been arranged and comments tidied up, but no functional change results.

Secondly, the patch implements the remaining changes to support the newer
timeofday/ktime_t interface (reduces to a one-liner).
