By allowing the max timer backoff duration to be limited, a socket can
fast recover in case of intermittent network issues. Before this CL, the
exponential backoff algorithm could result in very long retry durations
(in the order of minutes), when connection has been lost or been flaky
for a long while.
Note that limiting the maximum backoff duration might require
compensating the maximum retransmission limit to avoid closing the
socket prematurely due to reaching the maximum retransmission limit much
faster than previously.
