Comment:

 Ok. I declare the n23 patch located and updated.

 I can't do any more fixing on the patch until Mashael answers the
 questions at the top of connection_or_consider_sending_flowcontrol_cell(),
 so I know what it's *supposed* to be doing. In particular,
 {{{
 /* IG: Mashael should explain the algorithm here: what it should do in
  * each case and why. */
 }}}
 I opened #5392 for that work.

 Simulation results of this patch should go on #4486 (and #4487, once we
 get to it).
