[TCP]: Shrink syncookie_secret by 8 byte.

Browse Source 
the first u32 copied from syncookie_secret is overwritten by the
minute-counter four lines below.  After adjusting the destination
address, the size of syncookie_secret can be reduced accordingly.

AFAICS, the only other user of syncookie_secret[] is the ipv6
syncookie support.  Because ipv6 syncookies only grab 44 bytes from
syncookie_secret[], this shouldn't affect them in any way.

With fixes from Glenn Griffin.
