Fow now, an ACK can update the window in following case, according to
the tcp_may_update_window():

1. the ACK acknowledged new data
2. the ACK has new data
3. the ACK expand the window and the seq of it is valid

Now, we allow the ACK update the window if the window is 0, and the
seq/ack of it is valid. This is for the case that the receiver replies
an zero-window ACK when it is under memory stress and can't queue the new
data.
