timestamp related stack variables to reference ms directly instead of ticks.
The h_ertt(4) Khelp module relies on TCP timestamp information in order to
calculate its enhanced RTT estimates, but was not updated as part of r231767.
Consequently, h_ertt has not been calculating correct RTT estimates since
r231767 was comitted, which in turn broke all delay-based congestion control
algorithms because they rely on the h_ertt RTT estimates.
Fix the breakage by switching h_ertt to use tcp_ts_getticks() in place of all
previous uses of the ticks variable. This ensures all timestamp related
variables in h_ertt use the same units as the TCP stack and therefore results in
meaningful comparisons and RTT estimate calculations.

Khelp/Hhook KPIs to hook into the TCP stack and maintain a per-connection, low
noise estimate of the instantaneous RTT. ERTT's implementation is robust even in
the face of delayed acknowledgements and/or TSO being in use for a connection.
A high quality, low noise RTT estimate is a requirement for applications such as
delay-based congestion control, for which we will be importing some algorithm
implementations shortly.
