TCP: Obvious Spurious Retransmissions are not always detected
In rare circumstances Spurious Retransmissions are not detected and the SEQ analysis would instead conclude with a Fast Retransmit or an Out-Of-Order. As Spurious Retransmissions are more certain than the latter ones, their respective precedences are changed. The documentation is updated accordingly. Closes #13863.
