Patch to bring back synproxy functionality

I was wondering why synproxy rules performed so badly after the recent pf
changes implementing the fail-policy. Please have a look at my patch:

1. Shouldn't the return(action) statement be performed ALWAYS if action !=
PF_PASS?

2. If I understand pf_return() correctly, a RST is sent in case of TCP
connections. But it's probably not OK to send a RST if "action" came back with
PF_SYNPROXY_DROP. Is it OK to catch this with my additional "action == PF_DROP"
condition or do we need something more sophisticated?

While I am sure about 1., I am unsure about 2. (I just had a quick look at
pf_return() so maybe I missed something).
