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.

osmo-mgw.git also includes fixes of the MGW endpoint FSM, for example
I92a9944acc96398acd6649f9c3c5badec5dd6dcc.

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.
