To support segmented SI2quater as per 3GPP TS 44.018 we'll have to
support multiple SI messages (up to 16 for SI2q) for a given type in
contrast to existing 1:1 mapping:
* expand storage space to hold up to 16 SI messages (spec limit)
* add assertions for budget calculations
* generate multiple SI2q messages
* adjust SI2q-related tests
* use precise check for number of SIq messages instead of approximate
estimation

Related: OS#1660
In preparation for extended SI2q messages:
* add SI2q-specific accessor macro
* add *_offset variables to gsm_bts struct
* internalize memory check while generating rest octets - introduce
budget concept (number of bits available in a given message)
* internalize *arfcn_size() functions as they are not needed outside of
si2q_num() anymore
* change rest octets generation to work with gsm_bts struct directly
* do not generate rest octets if no SI2q is necessary
* adjust unit tests accordingly (cosmetic changes only to avoid
regressions)
Requires: I92e12e91605bdab9916a3f665705287572434f74 in libosmocore

Supporting SI2quater as per 3GPP TS 44.018 will require chnages to the
way System Information is stored because it uses 1:n instead of 1:1
mapping between SI type and generated SI content. This should not affect
other SI types though. To facilitate this transition:
* convert the code to always use GSM_BTS_SI helper instead of accessing
buffer directly
* make helper more robust by adding extra parenthesis
* add similar helper for gsm_lchan
* add function estimating number of SI2quater message to hold configured
number of (U|E)ARFCNs
* add SI2q index/count fields and pass them to rest_octets generator
explicitly
* internalize buffer access in generate_si* functions

* Explicitly check when ARFCN array split is impossible and return
gracefully instead of using negative index.
* Separate range encoding into generic function and use it for all
SI-related things.
* Propagate the error into that function and to its callers.
* Add separate test-case for the segfault previously triggered by this bug.

* add missing spaces after comma and minus
* prevent useless recursion calls
* mark static functions as such
* name and explicitly use enum for ARFCN range

libosmogsm is a new library that is distributed in the libosmocore.
Now, openbsc depends on it. This patch gets openbsc with this
change.
This patch also rewrites all include path to the new
osmocom/[gsm|core]

Before this commit, OpenBSC used templates for the SYSTEM INFO
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 messages. Those templates were patched in
various places to reflect the network config like ARFCN.
Now, we actually generate those SI messages ourselves, using
values from the configuration file, and even calculating neighbor
cell lists.
All bts'es that you have configured in OpenBSC will end up in
the neighbor cell list - which should be more than sufficient for
the current small-single-site networks.
