If the retransmission in CA_Loss is lost again, we should not
continue to slow start or raise cwnd in congestion avoidance mode.
Instead we should enter fast recovery and use PRR to reduce cwnd,
following the principle in RFC5681:

"... or the loss of a retransmission, should be taken as two
 indications of congestion and, therefore, cwnd (and ssthresh) MUST
 be lowered twice in this case."

This is especially important to reduce loss when the CA_Loss
state was caused by a traffic policer dropping the entire inflight.
The CA_Loss state has a problem where a loss of L packets causes the
sender to send a burst of L packets. So a policer that's dropping
most packets in a given RTT can cause a huge retransmit storm. By
contrast, PRR includes logic to bound the number of outbound packets
that result from a given ACK. So switching to CA_Recovery on lost
retransmits in CA_Loss avoids this retransmit storm problem when
in CA_Loss.
