    tcp: Allocate t_tcpreq_info on demand
    
    When TCP_REQUEST_TRK is enabled, the tcb grows by 600 bytes
    to accommodate the t_tcpreq_info[MAX_TCP_TRK_REQ] array.
    Even when the option is enabled, not every connection is using
    this feature.  So let's allocate it on-demand, and save 600
    bytes in the common case.
