[CCID3]: Make computation of X_recv conform to TFRC

The computation of X_recv does currently not conform to TFRC/RFC 3448,
since this specification requires that X_recv be computed over the last
R_m seconds (sec. 6.2).
The code, in contrast, computes X_recv over the time the last feedback was
sent. This results in sending wrong estimates of X_recv, making it impossible
for the sender to find its allowed sending rate.


I think this is one of those (rare) instances where RFC4342 overrides
RFC3448. Have a look in particular at section 10.3 of 4342 and 8.1/8.3

As such this patch is not correct I think.

Thoughts?
