mptcp: do not drop partial packets

When a packet arrives with map_seq < ack_seq < end_seq, the beginning
of the packet has already been acknowledged but the end contains new
data. Currently the entire packet is dropped as "old data," forcing
the sender to retransmit.

Instead, skip the already-acked bytes by adjusting the skb offset and
enqueue only the new portion. Update bytes_received and ack_seq to
reflect the new data consumed.

A previous attempt at this fix has been sent by Paolo Abeni [1], but had
issues [2]: it also added a zero-window check and changed rcv_wnd_sent
initialization, which caused test regressions. This version addresses
only the partial packet handling without modifying receive window
accounting.
