forcedeth: new backoff implementation
This patch adds support for a new backoff algorithm for half duplex supported in newer hardware. The old method is will be designated as legacy mode. Re-seeding random values for the backoff algorithms are performed when a transmit has failed due to a maximum retry count (1 to 15, where max is considered the wraparound case of 0).
