Neels Hofmeyr a0c4a06371 hodec2: add penalty-time low-rxqual-ho
When bad RxQual causes handover to a cell with weaker RxLev, then
handover oscillation *will* happen, as shown in test_rxqual.ho_vty.
Introduce a penalty timer for a cell where we had bad RxQual.

This delays handover back to the cell with stronger RxLev by the penalty
timeout; hopefully the interference is gone after the timeout.

Usually, we set new configuration elements so that osmo-bsc behaves the
same as before the config item was added. In this instance, this makes
no sense, because no-one ever wants handover oscillation from bad
RxQual, which is guaranteed to happen without the new penalty timer. Set
it to 60 seconds by default, same as other penalty timers.

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.
