Gerrit Renker 7c559a9e44 [DCCP]: Add socket option to query the current MPS
This enables applications to query the current value of the Maximum
Packet Size via a socket option, suggested as a SHOULD in (RFC 4340,
p. 102).

This socket option is useful to avoid the annoying bail-out via
`-EMSGSIZE'.  In particular, as fragmentation is not currently
supported (and its use is partly discouraged in RFC 4340).

With this option, it is possible to size buffers accordingly, e.g.

	int buflen = dccp_get_cur_mps(sockfd);

	/* or */
	if (msgsize > dccp_get_cur_mps(sockfd))
		die("message is too large for this path");
