lwip2 updates: no more git sub-sub-module deps, faster checksum, back…

…log limitation and other fixes (#6887)

* upstream lwIP is now downloaded by a makefile, not subsubmoduled

* lwip2: upstream lwIP not sub-sub-modules anymore
lwip2: Allow IPv4 and IPv6 DNS and SNTP server configured via DHCP to co-exist (patch against upstream)

* lwip2: enable tcp-listen-with-backlog feature

* lwip2 submodule update:
- enable more efficient chksum algorithm thanks to Richard Allen
- enable tcp listener with backlog

* more comments, fix backlog management, fix API
* move default value definition in .cpp
because one must not believe it can be redefined before including WiFiServer.h

* improved backlog handling, it is no more a breaking change

+// simultaneously pending clients is defined in WiFiServer.cpp
+// (MAX_PENDING_CLIENTS_PER_PORT=5).  User can overide it at runtime from
+// sketch:
+//      WiFiServer::begin(port, max-simultaneous-pending-clients);
+//
+// An "incoming pending" client is a new incoming TCP connection trying to
+// reach the TCP server.  It is "pending" until lwIP acknowledges it and
+// "accepted / no more pending" when user calls WiFiServer::available().
+//
+// Before the backlog feature or with lwIP-v1.4, there was no pending
+// connections: They were immediately accepted and filling RAM.
+//
+// Several pending clients can appear during the time when one client is
+// served by a long not-async service like ESP8266WebServer.  During that
+// time WiFiServer::available() cannot be called.
+//
+// Note: This *does not limit* the number of *simultaneously accepted
+//       clients*.  Such limit management is left to the user.
+//
+// Thus, when the maximum number of pending connections is reached, new
+// connections are delayed.
+// By "delayed", it is meant that WiFiServer(lwIP) will not answer to the
+// SYN packet until there is room for a new one: The TCP server on that port
+// will be mute.  The TCP client will regularly try to connect until success
+// or a timeout occurs (72s on windows).
+//
+// When user calls WiFiServer::available(), the tcp server stops muting and
+// answers to newcomers (until the "backlog" pending list is full again).
