Neels Hofmeyr 58cf1b1f66 lchan activation: add explicit encryption info to activation
For intra-BSC handover, the previous encryption is copied from the old lchan,
which of course is not available during inter-BSC handover.  Hence the lchan
activation info needs to include an explicit encryption information, and we
must not rely on the presence of the previous lchan to copy encryption
information from.

Add struct lchan_activate_info.encr to allow passing encryption info through
lchan_activate() without requiring a previous struct gsm_lchan to be present.

Instead of copying from the old lchan, always copy encryption info to
lchan_activate_info, and during activation, just before sending the Channel
Activation, copy the lchan_activate_info.encr to the new lchan.

This prepares for upcoming I5b269f50bd2092516bfdf87746196983d3ac49d1 which
obtains the encryption information from an intra-BSC-incoming Handover Request
message.

About OsmoBSC
=============

OsmoBSC originated from the OpenBSC project, which started as a minimalistic
all-in-one implementation of the GSM Network. In 2017, OpenBSC had reached
maturity and diversity (including M3UA SIGTRAN and 3G support in the form of
IuCS and IuPS interfaces) that naturally lead to a separation of the all-in-one
approach to fully independent separate programs as in typical GSM networks.

OsmoBSC was one of the parts split off from the old openbsc.git. Before, it
worked as a standalone osmo-bsc binary as well as a combination of libbsc and
libmsc, i.e. the old OsmoNITB. Since the standalone OsmoMSC with a true A
interface (and IuCS for 3G support) is available, OsmoBSC exists only as a
separate standalone entity.

OsmoBSC exposes
- A over IP towards an MSC (e.g. OsmoMSC);
- Abis interfaces towards various kinds of BTS;
- The Osmocom typical telnet VTY and CTRL interfaces.
