We already recover broken lchans where an ACTIV ACK or REL ACK arrives
late. Now add a recovery path for lchans that are broken because no
ACTIV ACK or REL ACK arrives at all.
Add a timeout of X28 = 30s to the lchan BORKEN state.
On timeout, attempt both a Channel Activation and a Channel Release. If
any of them is ACKed, we have successfully synced BTS and BSC's state.
After successful recovery, place the lchan back in the UNUSED state,
available for servicing subscribers.
If recovery is unsuccessful, just continue to attempt recovery every
further X28 seconds.

This allows keeping the bsc_subscriber storage internals outside of main
gsm_network code, while easily allowing making the internal
implementation more complex (in order to optimize it in a follow-up
commit).
It is also nice since we get rid of uncommon procedures being used in
this code, like allocating an llist directly as a talloc context, etc.

If queue size (in transmit delay of requests) is too long (above
threshold) when a new initial incoming request arrives, instead of
directly discarding it, see if we can drop a pending retransmission and
insert the new one instead, in order to avoid losing initial requests.
This is done under the assumption that it is more important to transmit
intial requests than to retransmit already transmitted ones. The
rationale is that there's lower chances that an MS which didn't answer
lately will answer now (aka being reachable at the cell), so it's better
to allocate resources for new requests (new MS) which may be available
in the cell.

This allows configuring the maximum delay of paging requests to be
queued according to other parameters, such as MSC paging request
timeouts, etc.

Use spaces around equals signs inside structs, as expected from the
kernel coding style we mostly follow.

Prevent BSC overloading in the event of too many BTS try to connect.
E.g. a network outage between the BSC and BTS.
The BSC will accept incoming OML connection, but will delay sending
any BSC originated messages.

Teach osmo-bsc to handle empty N-Connect. So far we were always
expecting user data in an SCCP N-Connect from an MSC. However, it is
perfectly valid for an initial BSSMAP request to follow later.
This is relevant for:
- Handover Request (incoming inter-BSC handover)
- Perform Location Request (query physical location of the MS)
Add state WAIT_INITIAL_USER_DATA with new timeout net X25. Always enter
this state so that we don't have two separate code paths for handling
initial user data.

The timer (T4) that controls the re-sending of the BSSMAP RESET can not
be changed via the VTY, althrough it is defined via a tdef struct. Lets
add a description along with default values to make it configurable via
the VTY.

While adding timers for Channel Mode Modify, I notice that X12 is
used in lcs_ta_req.c, but missing in net_init.c. Add it so that it is
exposed on the VTY configuration.

Backwards compatibly, introduce timer groups in OsmoBSC, and move some
non-specified T timers to new X timers:
T993111 -> X3111
T993210 -> X3210
T999 -> X4
Why X4? because there already is an X3 used elsewhere in Osmocom, and I find
it less confusing if X-numbers don't repeat across programs. See
https://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/List_of_Timer_numbers
Drop unused timers from g_mgw_tdefs. Only X2427 has an actual effect.
(libosmo-mgcp-client recently moved T2427001 to X2427.)
Put libosmo-mgcp-client related timers to the 'mgw' group, like in osmo-msc.
This makes the MGCP timeout configurable for the first time.
Keep previous timer commands as DEFUN_HIDDEN, and also translate the moved T
timers to X timers on-the-fly. All previous VTY commands still work, and new
'timer [(net|mgw)] ...' commands are added. timer.vty shows this.
Remove the "_OPTIONAL" from the legacy "timer" and "show timer" commands, so
that they don't ambiguously overload the new "timer [(net|mgw)] ..." commands.

Clarify some in-code comments.
Fix descriptions of some handover timers, which still talked of "MO" and "MT"
handover -- which we now call "inter-BSC out" or "inter-BSC in" instead.

Move the T_defs API to libosmocore as osmo_tdefs: remove the local T_defs API
and use libosmocore's osmo_tdef* API instead.
The root reason is moving the mgw_endpoint_fsm to libosmo-mgcp-client to be
able to use it in osmo-msc for inter-MSC handover.
When adding osmo_tdef, the new concept of timer groups was added to the API. It
would make sense to apply group names here as well, but do not modify the VTY
configuration for timers. The future might bring separate groups (or not).

The idea is to have a base static value which is set like before "timer
t3113 [seconds]", but now have a part of this timeout calculated
dynamically based on BTS channel configuration and channel load.
This patch only implements initial support to calculate based on channel
configuration, but doesn't include code to calculate based on channel
load. To implement the later part, we probably need to keep track of BTS
paging queues per paging group, which we don't do nowadays.
Dynamic calculation is enabled by default, and default static base value
is decreased accordingly. This way, in a typical setup were the default
10 seconds were used, now the calculated final value is 11 seconds.
That's intended because it was observed experimentally in osmo-gsm-tester with
a similar channel setup that sometimes paging response can arrive slightly
later than 10 seconds.

"utils" suggests thin helpers to aid using a proper API, while this .c file
actually *is* the proper RR API. Rename from "utils" to "rr".

Move all of libbsc/ into osmo-bsc/, and separate/move some implementations to
allow linking from utils/* and ipaccess/* without pulling in unccessary
dependencies.
Some utilities use gsm_network and gsm_bts structs, which already include data
structures for fairly advanced uses. Move initialization that only osmo-bsc
needs into new bsc_network_init() and bsc_bts_alloc_register() functions, so
that the leaner tools can use the old gsm_* versions without the need to link
everything (e.g. handover and lchan alloc code).
In some instances, there need to be stubs if to cut off linking "just before
the RSL level" and prevent dependencies from creeping in.
- abis_rsl_rcvmsg(): the only program currently interpreting RSL messages is
osmo-bsc, the utils are merely concerned with OML, if at all.
- paging_flush_bts(): ip.access nanobts models call this when the RSL link is
dropped. Only osmo-bsc actually needs to do anything there.
- on_gsm_ts_init(): the mechanism to trigger timeslot initialization is related
to OML, while this action to take on init would pull in RSL dependencies.
utils/ and ipaccess/ each have a stubs.c file to implement these stubs. Tests
implement stubs inline where required.
From src/utils/, src/ipaccess/ and tests/*/, link in .o files from osmo-bsc/.
In order for this to work, the osmo-bsc subdir must be built before the other
source trees. (An alternative would be to include the .c files as sources, but
that would re-compile them in every source tree. Not a large burden really, but
unless linking .o files gives problems, let's have the quicker build.)
Minor obvious cleanups creep in with this patch, I will not bother to name them
individually now unless code review asks me to.
Rationale:
1) libbsc has been separate to use it for osmo-nitb and osmo-bsc in the old
openbsc.git. This is no longer required, and spreading over libbsc and osmo-bsc
is distracting.
2) Recently, ridiculous linking requirements have made adding new functions
cumbersome, because libbsc has started depending on osmo-bsc/*.c
implementations: on gscon FSM and bssap functions. For example, neither
bs11_config nor ipaccess-config nor bts_test need handover_cfg or BSSMAP
message composition. It makes no sense to link the entire osmo-bsc to it, nor
do we want to keep adding stubs to each linking realm.
