YAMAMOTO Takashi 837e1a72a4 tcp_send_buffered.c: improve tcp write buffering
* Send data chunk-by-chunk
  Note: A stream socket doesn't have atomicity requirement.

* Increase the chance to use full-sized segments

Benchmark numbers in my environment:

* Over ESP32 wifi
* The peer is NetBSD, which has traditional delayed ack TCP
* iperf uses 16384 bytes buffer

without this patch,
CONFIG_IOB_NBUFFERS=36
CONFIG_IOB_BUFSIZE=196

does not work.
