The packet would still be sent. There is no way to delay it forever, it is the
next TC that will suffer.

If the router has 5 credit left in a Tc and it receives 100 bytes of packet,
it will send the 100 byte and any excess will be deducted from the next TC.
In this case, Assuming my BC is 900, then during the next interval i can only
send (900 -(100*8)) = 100
