> For the type-checking the value constraints from RFC 4340 are used:

>  * Sequence Window uses the specified Wmin=32, the maximum is ulong (4 bytes),
>    tested and confirmed that it works up to 4294967295 - for Gbps speed;
>  * Ack Ratio is between 0 .. 0xffff (2-byte unsigned integer);
>  * CCIDs are between 0 .. 255;
>  * request_retries, retries1, retries2 also between 0..255 for good measure;
>  * tx_qlen is checked to be non-negative;
>  * sync_ratelimit remains as before.
