tipc: improve message bundling algorithm
As mentioned in commit e95584a889e1 ("tipc: fix unlimited bundling of small messages"), the current message bundling algorithm is inefficient that can generate bundles of only one payload message, that causes unnecessary overheads for both the sender and receiver. This commit re-designs the 'tipc_msg_make_bundle()' function (now named as 'tipc_msg_try_bundle()'), so that when a message comes at the first place, we will just check & keep a reference to it if the message is suitable for bundling. The message buffer will be put into the link backlog queue and processed as normal. Later on, when another one comes we will make a bundle with the first message if possible and so on... This way, a bundle if really needed will always consist of at least two payload messages. Otherwise, we let the first buffer go its way without any need of bundling, so reduce the overheads to zero. Moreover, since now we have both the messages in hand, we can even optimize the 'tipc_msg_bundle()' function, make bundle of a very large (size ~ MSS) and small messages which is not with the current algorithm e.g. [1400-byte message] + [10-byte message] (MTU = 1500).
