+ * Congestion control of queued data packets via CCID decision.

+ * The TX CCID performs its congestion-control by indicating whether and when a
+ * queued packet may be sent, using the return code of ccid_hc_tx_send_packet().
+ * The following modes are supported via the symbolic constants below:
+ * - timer-based pacing    (CCID returns a delay value in milliseconds);
+ * - autonomous dequeueing (CCID internally schedules dccps_xmitlet).
