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

Previously only the existance of bts->si_common.si2quater_neigh_list was
checked but not the actual number of EARFCNs in it. Fix it by using
si2q_earfcn_count() and adjust tests accordingly. While at it - reformat
tests to include extra information.
The correctness was checked manually by inspecting GSMTAP output.

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)

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

The timer T3186, which is described in 3GPP TS 44.060, is using 3
bits of the si13 mac block. This requires special encoding. In the
case of T3186, the value is encoded by the formula: bits = t/500-1.
Our implementation uses the formula bits=t/500, which is incorrect.

* 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 vty function to explicitly set use of 4xRACH type of ack message for
PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Previous hardcoded value (use RLC/MAC
control block) is used as a default.
This is handy for debugging issues related to Timing Advance in context
of GPRS.

System Information 13 field EGPRS PACKET CHANNEL REQUEST is
modified to support 11 bit RACH. Further VTY configuration is added
to enable/disable 11 bit RACH support in EGPRS. By default 11 bit
RACH support is disabled.

In GSM R99 SI6 has mandatory SI6 rest octets and so far we did
not include them. Add minimal support to generate the right band
indicator.
Target a slightly older version of the SI6 rest octets as we neither
support MBMS nor Random bit stream but should include the band
indicator.

Fixes: OS#1630
Inside the SI1 rest_octets we will need to indicate if the ARFCN
is band 1800 or 1900. If the BTS is either 850 or 1900 we assume
we are running a PCS network, otherwise it is a DCS network.
The band indicator is not documented in GSM 04.08 but it is in the
GSM 05.14 version 6.1.0 Release 1997.
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]
