Controversy: this duplicates bts.N.rsl_connected. I would like to add
this duplication for consistency, since we now have these counters:
bsc.0.num_trx:rsl_connected
bsc.0.num_trx:total
bts.N.num_trx:total
and the old
bts.N.rsl_connected
which does not fit well with above naming scheme. Any user will be
justified to expect a stat named bts.N.num_trx:rsl_connected as well.
Determine bts.N.num_trx:rsl_connected in the new function
bsc_update_connection_stats(), where the other num_trx:* are set.

This allows having it initialized automatically, as we usually do with
this type of code. As a result, tests or other apps importing libbsc
don't need to take care of calling it.
NOTE: This fix is required by follow-up patches where some stubs are removed

using those FSMs before, there was no need to call ts_fsm_init().

From the nature of the lchan_activate_info.tsc_set and .tsc, it is easy

Handover code is one such instance that forgets to set -1.

When the SDCCH gets released while the TCH still beeing activated, then
the ChanActivACK that is received after the TCH is activated will trigger
a segmentation fault in the assignment_fsm. The reason for this is that
conn->lchan, which holds the SDCCH at that point in time, is now NULL.
To prevent osmo-bsc from crashing, the FSM should check for the presence
of conn->lchan first. If it does not exist, the FSM should terminate.

Setting LOWER_CMP_N and UPPER_CMP_N for all channel types can be quite
cumbersome and end up in lengthy config files. Let's instead add a
placeholder command to apply it to all channel types of a BTS at once.
This is useful specially since a user disabling C/I capabilities
probably does so because it may require a fair amount of fine-tuning
parameters to have it working perfectly. Hence, a user not willing to
spend time configuring those parameters correctly (and for which default
ones doesn't work properly) will require quick way to get rid of C/I
based MS Power Control Loop. By disabling C/I comparison, osmo-bts will
rely on RxLev only when applying the MS Power Control Loop, which is
fine for non noisy environments.

These commands return a listing of OML state, RF policy as well as RSL
connection status for each TRX in the form:
<bts_nr>,<trx_nr>,<opstate>,<adminstate>,<rf_policy>,<rsl_status>;<bts_nr>,<trx_nr>,...
For example, the root node 'rf_states' may return:
0,0,operational,unlocked,on,rsl-up;1,0,operational,unlocked,on,rsl-down;2,0,inoperational,locked,on,rsl-down;
A 'bts.N.rf_states' returns the same form of string, but lists only the
TRX for the given BTS nr.
Note, there is already a CTRL command 'bts.N.rf_state' (singular
'rf_state', not plural 'rf_states'), which only reflects the overall
status of all TRX combined. This new command has per-TRX resolution.
The rf-policy is so far always looked up in the global gsm_network flag,
as does the old 'rf_state' command; see osmo_bsc_rf_get_policy_by_bts()
which does not depend on the specific BTS at all. This may be worth
revisiting in the future, so I am already including the rf-policy in the
rf_state string for each TRX, even though it is globally identical.

TS 45.008 section 4.7.1:
"""
Upon receipt of a command from an SACCH to change its power level on the corresponding uplink channel, the MS
shall change to the new level at a rate of one nominal 2 dB power control step every 60 ms (13 TDMA frames), i.e. a
range change of 15 steps should take about 900 ms. The change shall commence at the first TDMA frame belonging to
the next reporting period (as specified in subclause 8.4). The MS shall change the power one nominal 2 dB step at a
time, at a rate of one step every 60 ms following the initial change, irrespective of whether actual transmission takes
place or not.
"""
Since the reported MS_PWR in L1 SACCH Header is, according to specs, the
one used for the last block of the previous SACCH period, it becomes
clear the first SACCH block after a requested MS Power Level change by
the network may contain mismatches between the announced MS_PWR by the
MS and the measured Rxlev/RxQual. Hence, let's better use a
P_CON_INTERVAL of 1 which retriggers the MS Power Control Loop every second
SACCH block.

While NACC was initially developed, it became clear there was need for
a way to interact PCU<->BSC in order resolve ARFCN+BSIC into CGI-PS
for later RIM usage.
Hence, this resolution was first (until today) implemented using an out
of bands RPC system using the CTRL interface, which required specific
config to be written and matches in osmo-pcu and osmo-bsc VTY (ip+port
of the CTRL interface to use).
However, this has several shortcomings:
* As explained above, specific configuration is required
* Since recently, we do support BSC redundancy in osmo-bts. Hence the BTS
may switch to a BSC other than first one. If that happened, that'd mean
the CTRL interface would still point to the initially configured one,
which may not be the same currently serving the PCU.
During recent development of ANR related features, a similar need for
PCU<->BSC was required, but this time it was decided to extend the IPA
multiplex of the Abis OML connection to pass PCUIF messages,
transparently forwarded to each side by the BTS.
This has the advantage that connection PCU<->BTS is handled by BTS and
both sides send messages transparently.
Let's switch by default to using this new interface, while still
maintaing the old way for a while (announcing them as deprecated) to
avoid breaking existing deployments until they are upgraded to new
versions of osmo-pcu and osmo-bsc.

So far we were inherting the bs_power in used when activating an lchan
for an MS for which we already had previous lchan. For instance, when an
MS is first assigned an SDCCH, and later on, it is assigned a TCH to
place a voice call.
Doing so is, however, not correct because current and old lchans may be
placed on different TS or even on different TRX, which means they will
have different BS Power restrictions. In the scenario described above,
for instance, an SDCCH could have been assigned on C0 and hence have
a bs_power of 0, and later on, whenever the TCH lchan as created, it
would have inherited the C0 bs_power despite it may have been possible
to use a different (lower) max bs power.
Furthermore, the lchan->bs_power_db basically stores the *maximum* bs
power reduction. Hence it makes not sense at all to copy over the value,
since it is anyway not updated from MS measurement reports so far
anyway.

Testing has shown that the Training Sequence Code in pre-chan-ack mode
is inaccurate (only worked with a BSIC that incidentally yielded the
same TSC value as the wrong TSC value sent in the IMM ASS msg).
Move the code setting the correct TSC and TSC-Set to the first stage of
channel activation (lchan_fsm_wait_ts_ready_onenter()) so that it is
available for both pre-chan-ack and pre-ts-ack Early-IA modes.
Have a separate function for setting the preliminary values requested in
Channel Activation (lchan->activate.*) into the accepted operative
places (lchan->*). Call this early for early-IA modes.
Hence the TSC and TSC-Set used in the early IMM ASS message is now the
correct one, and the same as sent during Channel Activation.
There shouldn't be any, but if there are other values besides TSC
suffering from the same problem, they are now also set to the right
values before sending IMM ASS early.

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.
