The mptcp_worker tries to update the MPTCP retransmission timer
even if such timer is not currently scheduled.

The mptcp_rtx_head() return value is bogus: we can have enqueued
data not yet transmitted. The above may additionally cause spurious,
unneeded MPTCP-level retransmissions.

Fix the issue adding an explicit clearing the rtx queue before
trying to retransmit and checking for unacked data
Additionally drop an unneeded timer stop call and the unused
mptcp_rtx_tail() helper.
