[CCID 3]: Consolidate timer resets

The specification in [RFC 3448, 4.4, step (3)] is impossible to
implement: when no feedback has been received, the value of RTT
is undefined as per [RFC 3448, 4.2]. Hence we can not set the
timeout value to max(4*R, 2*s/X) as step (3) suggests.

The most reasonable solution is to remain at the initial timeout
value of 2 seconds, as per [RFC 3448, 4.2] - until an estimate
for R has been computed.

The patch also consolidates handling timer restart by adding
an appropriate jump label and initialising the timeout value.

Thanks, applied.
