Before this patch, the MGW was selected at startup, and the MGCP data
was always forwarded to that same MGW.
If several MGW were configured in the MGW pool, then osmo-bsc would
select any of those from the pool, and start configured the BTS-side
connection on an endpoint in that MGW. However, when the MSC submitted
the MGCP encapsulated in IPA to the BSC, the BSC would always forward
the MGCP message to that same MGW selected at startup.
As a result, multiple MGWs configured with osmo-bsc using SCCPlite was
broken.
This commit fixes support for multiple MGWs by looking up the already
selected MGW (to setup the BTS-side conn on the endpoint), based on the
CIC (MGCP Endpoint) which was provided by the MSC upon AssignReq.

It was found that, on a busy osmo-bsc (>1000 concurrent calls spread over
several BTS), the CPU consumption looking up for gsm_subscriber_conn
based on SCCP conn_id can take a considerable amount of time (>5% of
osmo-bsc already taking 70% of the CPU time on the core it is running on).
The huge CPU consumption happens because a linear search is done (llist)
over the entire list of SCCP connections every time an SCCP message is
handled.
In order to optimize this lookup, this patch introduces a new struct
bsc_sccp_inst which becomes associated to the libosmo-sccp
osmo_sccp_instance. Each of this strucs maintains an rbtree of
gsm_subscriber_conn ordered by conn_id.
As a result algorithmic complexity adds O(log(N)) during insert, lookup
and delete of SCCP conns, but gets rid of O(N) previous lookup.
As a plus, finding a new conn_id now takes generally O(log(N)), while
before it used to take O(N).

This patch affects *only* on osmo_fsm instance IDs, which are visible on
the CTRL and VTY interfaces to identify FSM instances, and in the log.
Why bother: An upcoming patch wants to replace gsm_pchan_ids[] with
osmo_fsm_inst_update_id_f_sanitize(gsm_pchan_name(x)), this is an
explicit step to match gsm_pchan_names[].

We already use "OSMO_DYN" as C name for "fully dynamic" timeslot config,
when working with osmo-bsc.cfg I dearly miss this short name, it is a
pain / has become ridiculous to write 'tch/f_tch/h_sdcch8_pdch'.
Introduce 'dynamic/osmocom' and 'dynamic/ipaccess' as default names for

This feature allows pinning each BTS to a specific MGW from the
configured pool. The pinning can be soft or hard (strict). If strict
pinning is not set, the configured MGW is selected with priority, but
other MGWs can still be selected during each call setup if the
preferred MGW is found not available at that time, hence avoiding denial
of service for the entire BTS if that MGW goes down.
If strict mode is selected, the call will be refused if the configured
preferred MGW is not available at the time the call is set up.
It is useful to use this feature when Osmux is configured between
the BTS and the BSC and an MGW pool is in use. This way the BSC is
capable of grouping all the calls of a BTS towards one MGW, hence taking
advantage of the Osmux trunking optimizations to reduce link data usage
(AMR payload of several concurrent calls ending up sharing the same
underlaying UPD packet).
Furthermore, this allows the operator to intelligently spread load over
the MGW pool in order to avoid ending up with more than 256 concurrent
Osmux circuits on any of the co-located MGWs in the pool (maximum supported
at the moment).

This patch imposes no logical change in the code on itself, but makes
sure people compiling osmo-bsc uses an old enough libosmocore
implementing Cell Identifier SAI. This is important since adding the SAI
ID (CELL_IDENT_SAI) displaced CELL_IDENT_WHOLE_GLOBAL_PS to a new
number outside of the 3GPP range for cell IDS (4 bits, this way we
garantee we won't have the same problem again).
This means there was an ABI breakage (see Depends below).
As a result, using an osmo-bsc compiled against an older libosmocore
, and then using at runtime against a newer version of libosmocore, will
most probably provoke some RIM features to not work properly, since
libosmocore will handle CGI-PS cell ids sent by osmo-bsc as SAI ones,
and most probably do wrong comparisons when matching (they only match up
to LAI included).
ABI break analysis:
osmo-bsc uses CELL_IDENT_WHOLE_GLOBAL_PS in:
* gsm0808_dec_cell_id_list2() -> this is called on stuff received from the
network, so it's actually fine handling it
correctly as CELL_IDENT_UTRAN_SAI instead
of CGI_PS.
* gsm0808_cell_id_list_add
same_cell_id_list_entries
gsm0808_enc_cell_id_list2
cell_id_to_cgi-> On old osmo-bsc, When
CELL_IDENT_WHOLE_GLOBAL_PS is passed
to be encoded as CGI, RAC byte is
taken for encoding instead of 2nd CI byte.
* gsm0808_cell_ids_match
gsm0808_cell_id_u_match
cell_id_to_cgi -> If CELL_IDENT_WHOLE_GLOBAL_PS as 0x11
(CELL_IDENT_UTRAN_SAI), 1 byte offset when
comparing (1 byte of RAC is taken converting to
CGI instead of the 2nd byte of CI). That means
match would be wrong if 2nd byte of CI differs.

This commit extends existing VTY and RSL infrastructure to configure and
manage MS Power Parameters used in MS Power Control loop, by adding
support to set up Carrier-to-Interference (CI) parameters.
Using C/I instead of existing RxQual is preferred due to extended
granularity of C/I (bigger range than RxQual's 0-7).
Furthermore, existing literature (such as "GSM/EDGE: Evolution and Performance"
Table 10.3) provides detailed information about expected target values,
even different values for different channel types. Hence, it was decided
to support setting different MS Power Parameters for different channel
types.
These MS Power Parameters are Osmocom specific, ie. supported only by
newish versions of osmo-bts. Older versions of osmo-bts should ignore
the new IEs added just fine. The new IEs containing the MS POwer
Parameters are not send for non osmo-bts BTSs, hence this commit is
secure with regards to running osmo-bsc against an ip.access BTS such
as nanoBTS.

hence we always issued redundant MDCX even if for unchanged MSC side.

Whenever SRVCC EUTRAN->GERAN is performed by the CN, it will set the
Last Used E-UTRAN PLMN Id in order for the BSS to inform the MS
about EUTRAN neighbors once the call is over.
The last part (sending EUTRAN neighs) is already implemented, since same
thing is done as per CSFB. However, we lacked the first part, where the
EUTRAN PLMN Id is recorded for later use.
Actually, in both cases, we end up building the list of neighbors
without taking into accound the PLMN value (hence no filtering of
configured neighs), but it only sends such a list if any PLMN was stored
there, which means this patch is still necessary for a quick fallback to
4G after the call is over.
