handover_test: implement as VTY shell
Drop the string arrays, and move the 32 handover tests to separate
script files. Instead of the peculiar implementation and instead of
cryptic commands, implement the handover test scripts as a VTY.
handover_test.c now sets up a VTY with handover testing VTY commands. It
also features the complete and unabridged VTY configuration nodes of
osmo-bsc itself. That allows dropping various ho script commands.
Before:
static char *test_case_14[] = {
"Handover to congested cell, if RX level is below minimum\n\n"
"The better neighbor cell is congested, so no handover is performed.\n"
"If the RX level of the current cell drops below minimum acceptable\n"
"level, the handover is performed.\n",

"create-ms", "0", "TCH/F", "AMR",
"expect-ts-use", "0", "0", "*", "TCH/F", "-", "-", "-", "-", "-", "-",

}
After:
# Handover to congested cell, if RX level is below minimum
# The better neighbor cell is congested, so no handover is performed.
# If the RX level of the current cell drops below minimum acceptable
# level, the handover is performed.

Note how osmo-bsc's stock vty config nodes seamlessly integrate in the
test steps: just enter a configuration node, modify some values, and
indenting trivially takes care of exiting nodes correctly.
Running a test manually:
./handover_test test_0123.ho_vty
Instead of calling each test separately in testsuite.at, have a
handover_tests.sh script that picks up new tests just by presence of
files named test*.ho_vty.
Rationale:
It was considered to move handover tests to the TTCN suite, but there is
an advantage in having these C tests: they run super fast and catch bugs
even in the gerrit verification job, potentially saving a lot of time.
It is a reality that I need more of these tests, for dynamic timeslots
and TCH/F <-> TCH/H switches. The way the handover tests are written, as
arrays of strings containing cryptic fixed-argument script commands, has
been a pain to work with from the start, and now I am no longer willing
to endure that pain.
