Description
It seems nprobe doesn't export (or count) TCP packets that have been lost. It would be desirable to have information elements similar to what we have for OOO and RETX.

Research direction
Start by tracing nProbe's existing OOO and RETX information elements through their definitions and packet accounting or export paths. Done means TCP packets identified as lost are counted and exported through comparable information elements, with coverage matching the existing OOO and RETX behavior.
