[DCCP] tfrc: Identify TFRC table limits and simplify code
This
* adds documentation about the lowest resolution that is possible within
the bounds of the current lookup table
* defines a constant TFRC_SMALLEST_P which defines this resolution
* issues a warning if a given value of p is below resolution
* combines two previously adjacent if-blocks of nearly identical
structure into one
This patch does not change the algorithm as such.
