bgpd: enable TCP corking

* bgp_packet.c: (bgp_write) On BGP write, use TCP_CORK to provide hints to
  kernel about TCP buffering.  This will cause BGP packets to occur in
  bigger chunks (full size MTU), improving performance and getting rid of
  one of the problems reported in the UNH BGP conformance test.
