The pair recheck on timeout can easily cause repetitive rechecks in
a ping-pong effect, if both peers with the same behaviour try to
check the same pair almost simultaneously, and if the network rtt
is greater than the initial timer rto. The reply to the initial
stun request may arrive after the in-progress conncheck
cancellation (described in RFC 5245, sect 7.2.1.4). Cancellation
creates a new stun request, and forgets the initial one.
The conncheck timer is restarted with the same initial value,
so the same situation happens again later.

We choose to avoid resetting the timer in such situation. After enough
retransmissions, the timeout delay, that doubles after each timeout,
becomes longer than the rtt, and the stun reply can be handled.
