tcp: Return error instead of partial read for saved syn headers

Browse source 
Currently the getsockopt() requesting the cached contents of the syn
packet headers will fail silently if the caller uses a buffer that is
too small to contain the requested data.  Rather than fail silently and
discard the headers, getsockopt() should return an error and report the
required size to hold the data.
