High-Priority Optimization

NOTICE: Enabling high-priority optimization can effectively disable flow-
control for normal-priority packets.
The High-Priority Optimization setting implements a priority-based head-
of-line blocking prevention algorithm in the system. This algorithm ensures
that in the case of traffic congestion, normal priority packets do not hold up
high-priority packets.
