Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating quicly_loss_on_ack_received and its call site, then trace how the parameter intended to suppress RTT sampling is passed and handled. Done means ACKs of ACK-only packets no longer produce RTT samples, with the existing relevant checks or tests confirming the behavior.
